Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If self-adhesive (pressure-sensitive adhesive coated)
Non-adhesive PET film 3920; pressure-sensitive adhesive films to Chapter 39 heading 3919.
If copolymer PET with <95% ethylene terephthalate units
Strict 95% monomer rule per subheading (a)(1) determines pure PET vs other polyesters.
If rigid sheets over certain dimensions
Heading 3920 for flexible; rigid plastic sheets to 3921 regardless of material.
