Alternative Classifications

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

3921.13Lower: 14.2% vs 41.5%

If made of ethylene copolymers instead

Predominant monomer shifts classification to cellular polymers of ethylene under 3921.13 if not 95% regenerated cellulose.

3924.10.40.00Lower: 13.4% vs 41.5%

If cut and packaged for household retail sale

Finished household table/l kitchen articles of cellular plastics classify in 3924, not plates/sheets.

4016.99.60Lower: 37.5% vs 41.5%

If rubber-regenerated cellulose blend predominates rubber

Material composition change to rubber-based cellular products moves to Chapter 40.

Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Ensure documentation proves industrial end-use to distinguish from household articles under 3924 exclusions

β€’ Test for predominant regenerated cellulose content (>95% by weight) as per Chapter 39 subheading note (a)(1)

β€’ Package in bulk rolls to avoid retail sizing limits triggering 3921 special rates per US note
