⚠️ Important Notes and Recommendations
- April 11, 2025 Special Tariff: A 30.0% additional tariff will be applied to all the above HS codes after April 11, 2025. This is a time-sensitive policy and must be considered in cost planning.
- Anti-dumping duties: Not applicable for polyethylene products at this time.
- Material Verification: Confirm the exact material type (e.g., HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE) and intended use (pipeline, injection molding, packaging) to ensure correct HS code classification.
- Certifications: Check if customs documentation, product specifications, or certifications (e.g., food-grade, pipeline compliance) are required for import.
- Unit Price: Verify the unit price and quantity for accurate duty calculation, as some HS codes may have different rates based on value or weight.
✅ Proactive Advice
- Double-check the product’s end-use to avoid misclassification.
- Consult with customs brokers or classification experts if the product is borderline between categories.
- Monitor policy updates after April 11, 2025, as the special tariff may affect your import costs significantly.
