Import Tips

Verify monomer content exceeds 95% by weight via lab testing to confirm classification under 3908.90.70.00

Provide detailed chemical composition certificates to avoid misclassification as copolymers

Ensure pellets are in primary form (not compounded) to prevent shifting to Chapter 39 heading 3920
