PLANT CLIPS HS Code Classification
Based on the provided reference data and the product description "PLANT CLIPS", here's a breakdown of potential HS code classifications. It's important to note that the correct HS code depends heavily on the material the plant clips are made of.
Here's a classification based on likely materials, with explanations:
-
3926400090: Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: Statuettes and other ornamental articles Other
- 39: Plastics and articles thereof. This indicates the product is made of plastic.
- 26: Other articles of plastics. This further specifies the category.
- 40: Statuettes and other ornamental articles. Plant clips could be considered ornamental, especially if designed with aesthetic features.
- 00: Other. A general catch-all within the category.
- 90: Other. Further specification.
- Tax Rate: 35.3% (Base Tariff: 5.3%, Additional Tariff: 0.0%, Post-April 2, 2025 Additional Tariff: 30%). This is a likely code if the clips are primarily plastic and have some decorative element.
-
3926909989: Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: Other: Other Other
- 39: Plastics and articles thereof.
- 26: Other articles of plastics.
- 90: Other. This is a broader "other" category for plastic articles not specifically classified elsewhere.
- 99: Other. Further specification.
- 89: Other. The most general catch-all within this section.
- Tax Rate: 42.8% (Base Tariff: 5.3%, Additional Tariff: 7.5%, Post-April 2, 2025 Additional Tariff: 30%). Use this if the clips are plastic but don't fit the "ornamental" description.
-
7326908605: Other articles of iron or steel: Other: Other: Other: Other Rods for electrical grounding
- 73: Articles of iron or steel.
- 26: Other articles of iron or steel.
- 90: Other.
- 86: Other.
- 05: Rods for electrical grounding.
- Tax Rate: 82.9% (Base Tariff: 2.9%, Additional Tariff: 25.0%, Post-April 2, 2025 Additional Tariff: 30%). This code is only applicable if the clips are made of iron or steel and function as grounding rods. This is unlikely, but possible for specialized clips.
Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Material is Key: The most important factor is the composition of the plant clips. Are they plastic, metal (iron or steel), or another material?
- Functionality: If the clips have a specific function beyond simply holding plants (e.g., grounding, electrical conductivity), this could influence the classification.
- Detailed Description: Provide a more detailed description of the clips to the customs authorities. Include information about their size, shape, and intended use.
- Certification: Depending on the material and intended use, certain certifications may be required. (e.g. RoHS for plastics)
- Post-April 2, 2025 Tariffs: Be aware of the increased tariffs that will take effect after April 2, 2025.
- Check with Customs: It is always best to consult with a customs broker or the customs authorities directly to ensure accurate classification.
