Product Classification: Polyvinyl Chloride Plastic Fire Fighting Pipes
HS CODE: 3917390050
Description: Other plastic pipes and pipe fittings
🔍 Tariff Overview (as of now):
- Base Tariff Rate: 3.1%
- Additional Tariff (currently applicable): 0.0%
- Special Tariff after April 11, 2025: 30.0%
- Total Tax Rate: 33.1%
📌 Key Notes on Tariff Changes:
-
April 11, 2025 Special Tariff:
A 30.0% additional tariff will be imposed on this product after April 11, 2025. This is a significant increase and will raise the total tax rate to 33.1%. -
No Anti-Dumping Duties:
No specific anti-dumping duties are currently listed for PVC fire fighting pipes. -
No Specific Tariff for Iron or Aluminum:
This product is made of plastic (PVC), so anti-dumping duties on iron or aluminum do not apply.
📦 Classification Considerations:
-
Material Confirmation: Ensure the product is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and not another type of plastic (e.g., polyethylene or polypropylene), which fall under different HS codes (e.g., 3917210000 or 3917220000).
-
Function and Use: Fire fighting pipes may be subject to stricter classification if they are considered "pressure pipes" or have specific technical specifications (e.g., minimum burst pressure). In such cases, the HS code 3917310000 may be more appropriate.
-
Certifications: Verify if any safety or fire resistance certifications are required for import into the destination country.
🛠️ Proactive Advice:
-
Verify Material and Unit Price: Confirm the exact composition of the product and its unit price to ensure correct classification and tax calculation.
-
Check for Additional Regulations: Some countries may impose customs inspections or safety checks for fire fighting equipment.
-
Plan Ahead for Tariff Changes: If importing after April 11, 2025, budget for the 30.0% additional tariff to avoid unexpected costs.
