Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If viscosity exceeds 88 ml/g
Higher IV PET for thicker applications like jars falls into the next viscosity subheading.
If imported as preforms rather than resin pellets
PET preforms are shaped articles of polymers, moving from primary forms (heading 39.07) to plates/sheets/film (39.20).
If primarily poly(lactic acid) rather than PET
Biodegradable PLA resins, sometimes used similarly in bottles, classify under unsaturated polyester heading 3907.91.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include melt flow index and IV test reports from accredited labs; CBP may require re-testing for verification
• Label shipments clearly as 'PET resin IV 78-88 ml/g' and segregate from other IV grades to prevent commingling during customs exam
• Watch for reclassification if pellets contain additives exceeding 5% by weight, potentially shifting to 'other' polyester categories
