CBP's Ruling
| Item | HTS code | CBP's description of the line |
|---|---|---|
| Green Blended Turf (Fine) | HTS 3926.90.9989 | Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: Other: Other: Other |
Explanation
CBP found that the turf is an article of plastic and that no other heading provides for it more specifically. Heading 3926 covers other articles of plastics, and CBP placed the turf on the residual line for other articles under that heading; the fibers are made of polyurethane plastic foam and paint.
Does this apply to your product?
It likely does if you can answer yes to each of these:
- Is it made of polyurethane plastic foam fibers?
- Is it used to make moss, grass or other foliage for craft projects?
- Is it a finished plastic article that no other heading describes more specifically?
A no to any of them can mean a different code. A licensed broker can classify your product.
