Import Tips

• Declare exact polymer content (e.g

• vinyl acetate copolymers) to confirm 'other plastics'; blends may shift classification per subheading note (a)

• Ensure product is in rolls/tiles format; bulk sheets risk reclassification as 3920 plates

• Label fire ratings for building code compliance; pitfall is missing origin certificates for preferential duty rates
