This order gives a tariff concession (reduced or zero import duty) to a specific type of plastic film used in manufacturing.
What goods are covered?
The concession applies to polypropylene film that meets ALL of these technical criteria:
- Corona treated (an electrical surface treatment to help ink or glue stick to the plastic)
- Thickness of 0.08 mm or less (very thin film)
- Balanced biaxial orientation (stretched equally in two directions during manufacturing to make it strong and clear)
Who does this affect?
Businesses that import this specific film under customs classification 3920.20.00.
Why does this matter?
Without this order, importers would pay standard customs duty on this film. The concession reduces costs for businesses using this material—commonly used in food packaging, labels, and printing applications.
