Import Tips

• Verify the plastic material composition meets Chapter 39 polymer definitions to avoid misclassification into other plastic articles

• Include detailed product specs and end-use documentation to distinguish from packaging bobbins under 3923.10

• Check for any metal inserts, as those may require classification as composite goods under different headings
