Alternative Classifications

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

3920.10.00.00Same rate: 39.2%

If silicones predominate in polymer content

Silicone plates/sheets have specific subheading 3920.10; predominating monomer shifts classification.

3921.90Lower: 14.8% vs 39.2%

If pre-cut panels with holes for greenhouse frames

Cut-to-shape or further worked sheets become 'other plastic plates/sheets' in 3921.90.

5903.90.20.00Lower: 35% vs 39.2%

If textile-backed for reinforced structure

Textile-covered plastic sheets for reinforcement fall under Chapter 59, not Chapter 39.
