Disposable Non-Woven Polypropylene Face Mask from China
A single-use face mask made from three layers of non-woven polypropylene fabric, designed to cover the nose and mouth for basic protection against airborne particles. It qualifies under HTS 6307.90.98.70 as a disposable other face mask without replaceable filters, falling into the 'made up articles' category of Chapter 63 since it is not surgical drapes or specific insecticidal fabrics. These masks are typically used in everyday settings like public transport or shopping.

Import Tips
• Verify the mask lacks replaceable filters to avoid reclassification; ensure supplier provides material composition certificates for non-woven textiles
• Common pitfall: mislabeling as medical devices triggering FDA oversight instead of tariff-only entry
