Okay, let's break down the HS codes and tax implications for your declared items, focusing on "WASHING BAG" as the general product category. I'll provide a structured analysis to help you understand the classifications and potential costs.
Important Note: HS code classification can be complex. The final determination rests with customs officials. This analysis is based on the information provided and is for guidance only. It's crucial to verify these codes with your customs broker or local customs authority.
Here's a breakdown of each HS code provided, with explanations and recommendations:
1. 6307.90.98.91 – Other made up articles, including dress patterns: Other: Other: Other
- Breakdown:
- 63: Linens, table cloths, bed linens, toilet linens and kitchen linens.
- 07: Other made up articles. This suggests the item isn't a standard linen type.
- 90: Other. This is a broad category for items not specifically listed.
- 98: Other. Further refinement within the "Other" category.
- 91: Other. The most specific level, indicating a very general "other" article.
- Applicability to Washing Bags: This code could apply if the washing bag is considered a household textile item, perhaps used for delicate clothing. However, it's a less precise fit.
- Tax: 37.0% total tax (7.0% base + 0.0% additional, increasing to 30% additional after April 2, 2025).
- Recommendation: Confirm the material composition. If it's primarily plastic or another material, a different code might be more accurate.
2. 3926.90.99.05 – Other articles of plastics and/to
- Breakdown:
- 39: Plastics and articles thereof.
- 26: Other articles of plastics.
- 90: Other.
- 99: Other.
- 05: Specific sub-category within "other" plastic articles.
- Applicability to Washing Bags: This is a strong candidate if the washing bag is made of plastic (polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.).
- Tax: 42.8% total tax (5.3% base + 7.5% additional, increasing to 30% additional after April 2, 2025).
- Recommendation: Crucially, confirm the exact plastic type. Different plastic compositions can sometimes fall under different codes.
3. 3926.90.99.89 – Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: Other: Other Other
- Breakdown: Similar to 3926.90.99.05, but this code is used for articles made of multiple materials, including plastics.
- Applicability to Washing Bags: If your washing bag has plastic mesh and a frame made of another material (metal, wood, etc.), this code is likely appropriate.
- Tax: 42.8% total tax (5.3% base + 7.5% additional, increasing to 30% additional after April 2, 2025).
- Recommendation: Confirm all materials used in the construction of the bag.
4. 4421.91.88.00 – Other articles of wood: Other: Of bamboo: Canoe paddles
- Breakdown:
- 44: Wood and articles of wood.
- 21: Articles of wood.
- 91: Other.
- 88: Of bamboo.
- 00: Specific sub-category.
- Applicability to Washing Bags: This code is unlikely to be correct unless your washing bag is specifically made of bamboo and designed like a paddle (which is highly improbable).
- Tax: 30.0% total tax (0.0% base + 0.0% additional, increasing to 30% additional after April 2, 2025).
- Recommendation: This code appears to be a misclassification. Unless it's a very unusual bamboo washing bag, disregard this code.
5. 4421.91.98.80 – Other articles of wood: Other: Of bamboo: Other: Other Other
- Breakdown: Similar to 4421.91.88.00, but for other bamboo wood articles.
- Applicability to Washing Bags: Again, this is unlikely unless the bag is made of bamboo.
- Tax: 58.3% total tax (3.3% base + 25.0% additional, increasing to 30% additional after April 2, 2025).
- Recommendation: This code is likely incorrect unless the bag is made of bamboo.
6. 9619.00.90.00 – Sanitary pads (towels) and tampons, diapers (napkins), diaper liners and similar articles, of any material: Other
- Breakdown:
- 96: Miscellaneous manufactured articles.
- 19: Articles for personal hygiene.
- 00: Other.
- Applicability to Washing Bags: This code is completely incorrect for a washing bag. It's for absorbent hygiene products.
- Tax: 44.5% total tax (7.0% base + 7.5% additional, increasing to 30% additional after April 2, 2025).
- Recommendation: Disregard this code entirely.
Overall Recommendations:
- Material is Key: The primary material of your washing bag is the most important factor in determining the correct HS code.
- Plastic Bags (3926.90.99.05 or 3926.90.99.89): If the bag is made of plastic, these are the most likely codes. If it's a single material, use 3926.90.99.05. If it's multiple materials, use 3926.90.99.89.
- Confirm with Customs: Always verify the HS code with your customs broker or local customs authority. Provide them with a sample of the washing bag and a detailed description of the materials used.
- April 2, 2025: Be aware of the upcoming tariff changes on April 2, 2025. The additional tariffs will increase significantly.
- Single Declaration: Ensure you are declaring the correct quantity and value of the goods.
