U.S. imports of ethylene-vinyl acetate (eva) copolymers in primary forms (HS 390130) totaled $20.5M in July 2026, traded with 27 countries.
Importers of Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA) Copolymers in Primary Forms paid $1.2M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 11% on $10.3M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA) Copolymers in Primary Forms imports of $20.5M in July 2026 ran 30% above the year-to-date monthly average of $15.8M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataEthylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, widely known as EVA, serve as a versatile base resin in adhesives, flexible packaging, foam footwear, solar-panel encapsulants, and wire-and-cable compounds. The US tariff schedule distinguishes a terpolymer variant — vinyl acetate–vinyl chloride–ethylene (3901302000) — from all other EVA grades (3901306000), making the precise monomer composition critical at entry. Canada leads US imports under this heading, followed by South Korea and Germany. Importers sourcing from South Korea should evaluate KORUS FTA eligibility, while those sourcing from Germany should note that EU-origin goods are not covered by a US preferential program.

HTS 3901302000 applies specifically to the vinyl acetate–vinyl chloride–ethylene terpolymer, while 3901306000 captures all other EVA copolymers. Misclassifying a terpolymer as a standard EVA — or vice versa — can result in incorrect duty assessment and potential penalties. Suppliers should provide a certificate of composition or technical data sheet confirming the monomer types and ratios.
South Korea is a US free-trade-agreement partner under KORUS, and qualifying EVA copolymers of Korean origin may be eligible for preferential duty treatment, provided the goods meet the applicable rules-of-origin requirements. Importers should obtain a valid certificate or certification of origin and confirm eligibility with a licensed customs broker.
