Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "39" represent "Plastics and articles of plastics."

Specifically, this classification includes:

• 3901-3914: Mainly various types of plastics, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, polyamide, polyester, etc., as well as copolymers of these plastics.
• 3915-3926: Covers various products made of plastics, such as plastic sheets, plates, films, tubes, profiles, packaging materials, containers, boxes, pallets, building materials, medical devices, toys, furniture, sports equipment, etc.

Reason for classification:

This classification is based on the chemical composition and physical properties of the material. Plastics are composed of high molecular compounds and have characteristics such as plasticity, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Therefore, all products primarily composed of plastics or made of plastics are classified under HS code chapter 39.

In short, as long as the main component of a product is plastic, or it is made of plastic, HS code 39 should be considered first.

The first four digits of the HS code "3923" refer to "Articles for the conveyance or packing of goods, of plastics; stoppers, lids, caps and other closures, of plastics."
