Alternative Classifications

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

3920.63Lower: 15.8% vs 35%

If over typical film thickness

Thicker PVC webs qualify as non-cellular sheets in 3920 rather than film scrap.

3919.10Lower: 15.8% vs 35%

If self-adhesive PVC film scrap

Scrap of plastic film coated with adhesive synthetic resin classified in heading 3919.
