3907.61.00.50/High Viscosity PET Resin Pellets/Japan

High Viscosity PET Resin Pellets from Japan

Granular polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resin with a viscosity number of 78 ml/g or higher, used primarily for producing high-strength bottles and packaging films. This falls under HTS 3907.61.00.50 as PET in primary form meeting the specified viscosity threshold, classified as 'Other' within the high viscosity series.

Import Tips

• Verify intrinsic viscosity (IV) through lab testing to confirm ≥78 ml/g, as documentation is required for classification

• Provide certificates of analysis showing monomer composition where PET units exceed 95% by weight per Chapter 39 notes

• Avoid misdeclaration as lower viscosity PET (3907.60), which could trigger audits and penalties
