Last updated: April 2026 dataPlastic rigid containers used for storage, transport, and retail display are among the most widely traded plastic articles in US commerce, with Mexico and Canada leading supply — positioning many shipments for USMCA preferential treatment. The US schedule subdivides this heading into a general line (3923109000) and a specialized line (3923102000) covering plastic specially shaped packaging for semiconductor conveyance equipment classified under HTS 8426.90 or 8486.90, a distinction that matters significantly for electronics supply-chain importers. Goods subject to Section 301 tariffs when sourced from China include the broad NESOI line, making origin documentation critical.

Line 3923102000 covers plastic containers specially shaped or fitted for the conveyance or packing of semiconductor manufacturing equipment classifiable under specific HTS headings (including 8486.90). The shape, internal fitment, and end-use documentation must demonstrate that the container is purpose-built for that equipment. General-purpose plastic crates and cases fall into 3923109000.
Goods originating in Mexico that meet USMCA rules-of-origin requirements — including applicable tariff-shift or regional-value-content tests for Chapter 39 plastics articles — are eligible for USMCA preferential (duty-free) treatment. Importers must retain a valid USMCA certification of origin and ensure the product genuinely qualifies under the agreement's rules before claiming the preference.
