Product Name: High Density Polyethylene Drum
Classification Notes: Based on the provided HS codes and descriptions, the classification of high-density polyethylene drums depends on specific attributes such as material type, capacity, and usage (e.g., drum vs. bottle vs. container). Below is a structured breakdown of the relevant HS codes and associated tariff rates.
✅ HS CODE: 3923900014
Description: Plastic drums and pails, with a capacity of 11.36 liters (3 gallons) or more, but not exceeding 22.71 liters (6 gallons), made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
Total Tax Rate: 58.0%
- Base Tariff Rate: 3.0%
- Additional Tariff: 25.0%
- April 11, 2025 Special Tariff: 30.0% (applies after April 11, 2025)
Key Notes:
- This code is specific to drums with a defined capacity range.
- Ensure the capacity of your product falls within 11.36L to 22.71L to qualify for this classification.
✅ HS CODE: 3923900080
Description: Plastic drums or pails, made of high-density polyethylene, not otherwise specified (e.g., unspecified capacity or usage).
Total Tax Rate: 58.0%
- Base Tariff Rate: 3.0%
- Additional Tariff: 25.0%
- April 11, 2025 Special Tariff: 30.0%
Key Notes:
- This is a catch-all category for HDPE drums without specific capacity or usage details.
- If your product does not meet the criteria for 3923900014, this may be the correct classification.
✅ HS CODE: 3901105020
Description: Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) containers or drums.
Total Tax Rate: 61.5%
- Base Tariff Rate: 6.5%
- Additional Tariff: 25.0%
- April 11, 2025 Special Tariff: 30.0%
Key Notes:
- This code is specific to low-density polyethylene, not high-density.
- If your product is LDPE, this is the correct classification.
- Not applicable for high-density polyethylene.
✅ HS CODE: 3923300090
Description: Plastic bottles, made of high-density polyethylene, not otherwise specified (e.g., unspecified capacity or usage).
Total Tax Rate: 58.0%
- Base Tariff Rate: 3.0%
- Additional Tariff: 25.0%
- April 11, 2025 Special Tariff: 30.0%
Key Notes:
- This code is for bottles, not drums.
- If your product is a bottle and not a drum, this may be the correct classification.
✅ HS CODE: 3901101000
Description: High-density polyethylene (HDPE) containers or drums, made from ethylene polymers.
Total Tax Rate: 61.5%
- Base Tariff Rate: 6.5%
- Additional Tariff: 25.0%
- April 11, 2025 Special Tariff: 30.0%
Key Notes:
- This code is for HDPE containers in their raw or primary form.
- If your product is a container made of HDPE and not a drum or bottle, this may be the correct classification.
📌 Proactive Advice for Users:
- Verify Material: Confirm whether your product is made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or low-density polyethylene (LDPE). This will determine the correct HS code.
- Check Capacity: If your drum is between 11.36L and 22.71L, use 3923900014. Otherwise, consider 3923900080.
- Confirm Usage: If your product is a bottle, use 3923300090. If it's a container, use 3901101000.
- Tariff Alert: The April 11, 2025 special tariff of 30.0% will apply to all the above codes. Ensure your customs documentation reflects this.
- Certifications: Check if any certifications (e.g., REACH, RoHS) are required for import into the destination country.
