Declaration requirements for plastics and plastic products
1、 Main product categories and declaration elements
（1） Polymer in primary form
1. Product name
2. Appearance (shape, transparency, color, etc.)
3. Component content
4. Types and proportions of individual units
5. Specific gravity
6. Source of base material
7. Level
8. Brand (Chinese and foreign language brands)
9. Model
10. Signing date
11. Manufacturer
12. Purpose
（2） Other plastic products
1. Product name
2. Purpose
3. Material
4. Brand (Chinese and foreign names)
5. Specification or model
2、 Common declaration errors
1. Appearance
Definition of elements: Refers to the actual appearance status of the product itself, mainly referring to the apparent characteristics of the product such as color, transparency, and shape.
Color, transparency, and shape are important elements that reflect the state of a product, and they are indispensable. Transparency can usually be reported as "transparent", "semi transparent", "opaque", etc.
For example, items under tax heading 39.01 can be filled in as "white; transparent; granular".
2. Component content&types and proportions of monomer units
Element Definition:
Component content: Refers to the types and contents of various substances contained in a product.
Types and proportions of monomer units: Monomer units refer to simple compounds that can undergo polymerization or condensation reactions and become polymer compounds. Generally, low molecular compounds that are unsaturated, cyclic, or contain two or more functional groups require the type and content of monomers to be reported.
The "component content" should be clearly distinguished from the "type and proportion of monomer units".
For example, the "component content" of polyethylene under tax code column 3901.1000 can be filled in as "polyethylene 100%"; The type and proportion of monomer units can be filled in as "ethylene 100%". Ethylene propylene copolymer, its "component content" can be declared as "99% ethylene propylene copolymer, 1% carbon black"; Its monomer unit can be declared as "ethylene 8%; propylene 92%".
3. Source of base material
Definition of elements: If plastic in primary form comes from recycled waste plastic, "recycled material" should be filled in. If it is fragmented plastic obtained after processing from recycled plastic bottles, "bottle sheet material" should be indicated; If it is a primary shape plastic obtained through normal polymerization of low molecular weight raw materials, fill in "new material", and if it is a sub brand material, indicate it.
The "source of base material" mainly distinguishes whether the product is new or old. If it is a new material but a sub brand material, it should be indicated. If it is an old material, the source should also be indicated.
4. Brand
Element Definition: Refers to the brand logo added by the manufacturer or distributor to the product, which actually requires the declaration of Chinese and foreign brand names.
For example, it can be reported as "Mitsui Mitsui", etc. Brands must declare Chinese and foreign language brands. For those with only a single Chinese (or foreign language) brand, they should truthfully declare the Chinese (or foreign language) brand and indicate "no foreign (or Chinese) brand", and cannot simply declare as "none".
5. Purpose
Element Definition: This element is the main price element of the goods in Chapter 39, referring to the application scope of the goods in that chapter.
For example, it can be reported as "used for pharmaceutical additives", "suitable for beer clarifiers", etc.
