Product Name: Microporous Polyethylene Film for Filtration
Classification: Based on the provided HS codes, the product can be classified under two potential HS codes depending on the context of use and product form.
🔍 HS Code 3921190010
Description: Microporous sheets of polyethylene or polypropylene
Total Tax Rate: 61.5%
Breakdown of Tax Rates:
- Base Tariff Rate: 6.5%
- Additional Tariff (General): 25.0%
