Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Material Composition: The HS code is heavily dependent on the primary material of the item. If your makeup organizers are a combination of materials (e.g., wood with plastic inserts, glass with metal frames), you need to determine the dominant material for correct classification.
- Textile Lining: For codes 4420.90.45.00 and 4420.90.65.00, the presence or absence of textile lining significantly impacts the tariff.
- April 2nd, 2025 Tariff Changes: Be aware of the upcoming tariff changes. Factor these into your cost calculations.
- Code 6307.90.91: Investigate this code immediately. You need to determine the correct tariff rate before importing.
- Certifications: Depending on the materials used (especially plastics), you may need to provide certifications related to safety standards (e.g., BPA-free, food-grade).
- Consult a Broker: I strongly recommend working with a licensed customs broker. They can provide expert guidance on HS code classification, tariff rates, and import regulations specific to your country of import.
- Provide Detailed Information: When submitting your declaration, be as specific as possible about the materials, construction, and intended use of the makeup organizers.
To help me refine the classification further, could you please provide more details about the following?
- What are the primary materials used in each type of makeup organizer?
- Are any of the organizers lined with textile fabrics?
- What is the intended use of the organizers (e.g., cosmetics, jewelry, office supplies)?
