Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3907.91Lower: 16.5% vs 40.3%

If predominant unsaturated polyester content

Predominant monomer determines series per subheading note (a)(4).

4811.41Lower: 10% vs 40.3%

If pre-coated on paper substrate

Paper coated with plastics classifies by paper base material in Chapter 48.

3209.10.00.00Lower: 40.1% vs 40.3%

If water-thinned ready-to-use coating

Ready-to-apply water-based coatings fall under Chapter 32 paints.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Carboxyl modification doesn't trigger 'Other' reclassification unless exceeding note limits

• Prevent agglomeration during transit; fused material risks 3920 non-primary classification

• Document end use prevents incorrect Chapter 48 paper coating classification
