Harmonized System Code Classification

You provided the HS code "39" and asked for an explanation of the classification.

39 Classification Reason:

The HS code "39" includes "Plastics and articles thereof."

Specifically, this chapter mainly includes:

• Primary plastic forms: Such as plastic granules, powder, sheets, rods, tubes, etc.
• Plastic products: Including various types of plastic products, such as:
  • Packaging materials (plastic bags, plastic bottles, plastic boxes, etc.)
  • Building materials (plastic pipes, plastic sheets, plastic films, etc.)
  • Daily necessities (plastic basins, plastic buckets, plastic furniture, etc.)
  • Medical devices (plastic syringes, plastic infusion bags, etc.)
  • Automotive components (plastic bumpers, plastic interior parts, etc.)
  • Electrical insulation materials (plastic wire and cable sheaths, etc.)

Classification Basis:

Customs classification of plastics and their products mainly depends on the following principles:

• Material composition: If the main component is plastic, it is classified under Chapter 39.
• Product nature: Even if plastic is combined with other materials, if plastic is the main component or plays a decisive role, it is usually classified under Chapter 39.
• Usage: Some specific plastic products may be classified under other chapters based on their function, but most plastic products are classified under Chapter 39.

In short, if the main component of a product is plastic, or plastic plays a major role in the product, it should be considered for classification under Chapter 39.

If you need more detailed classification information, or want to determine the HS code for a specific plastic product, please provide more detailed product descriptions, such as:

• Type of plastic (polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, etc.)
• Specific use of the product
• Shape and size of the product
• Whether the product is combined with other materials

I will do my best to help you classify it more accurately.

Classification of the first 4 digits:

3917 represents:

Plastic pipes, fittings, and plastic hoses and hose fittings (e.g., couplings, elbows, flanges).

Classification of the first 6 digits:

According to the HS code, 3917.10 refers to:

Plastic pipes, plastic hoses, and their fittings (e.g., couplings, elbows, flanges)

Specifically divided into:

• Plastic pipes made of hardened protein or cellulose material (e.g., sausage casings)
  • Other
    • Other

Classification of the 8-10 digits:

No corresponding HS code. The user's input HS code is incorrect.

Examples of products under HS code 3917.10:

• Plastic water pipes
• Plastic drainage pipes
• Plastic fittings (elbows, couplings)
• Plastic hose connectors
• Plastic plumbing components
• Plastic irrigation pipes
• Plastic gas pipes
• Plastic fittings for HVAC systems
• Plastic tubing for industrial applications
• Plastic connectors for automotive systems
