Find HS Code and trade information for OBJECT TRACKING HOLDER

Okay, let's break down the classification and duty information for your declared items, focusing on clarity and potential considerations for customs clearance.

OBJECT TRACKING HOLDER - HS Code Analysis & Duty Information

Here's a detailed look at each item you've provided:

Item 1: Other Elastic bands made wholly of plastics

• Description: Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: Other: Other Elastic bands made wholly of plastics

• HS Code: Currently blank. This requires determination.

  • Breakdown of HS Code Structure (First 2 Digits): The first two digits (likely falling within 39 based on the description) indicate the chapter. Chapter 39 covers "Plastics and articles thereof." This is a broad category, so we need to be more specific.
  • Possible HS Codes & Considerations:
    • 3926.90: This is a likely candidate, covering "Other articles of plastics and articles thereof." Within this, you'll need to determine the specific type of plastic and the article's function.
    • Further Refinement: Is it a plastic band for general use? Is it specifically designed for holding objects (like a camera, phone, etc.)? The more detail you can provide, the more accurate the HS code will be.
  • Duty Information: Without a specific HS code, we cannot determine the exact duty rate. Duty rates vary significantly within Chapter 39 based on the type of plastic and the article's composition.
  • Recommendation: Please provide more details about the material composition of the elastic bands (e.g., PVC, polyethylene, polypropylene) and their intended use. This will help pinpoint the correct HS code.

    • 90: Other articles of iron or steel.
