U.S. imports of non-cellular polyamide plates, sheets, film, foil & strip (HS 392092) totaled $10.1M in August 2026, imported from 34 countries.
Importers of Non-Cellular Polyamide Plates, Sheets, Film, Foil & Strip paid $709K in duties in August 2026, an effective tariff rate of 7.04% of the $10.1M imported — duty actually collected as a share of that value, not the published tariff schedule. Non-Cellular Polyamide Plates, Sheets, Film, Foil & Strip imports of $10.1M in August 2026 ran 14% above the year-to-date monthly average of $8.8M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataPolyamide (nylon) flat stock — covering both PA6 and PA6,6 film and sheet in non-cellular, unreinforced form — is widely used in food packaging barrier films, industrial membranes, and high-temperature electrical insulation where nylon's oxygen-barrier and mechanical properties are required. All US imports enter under a single tariff line, 3920920000, and Canada leads supply, a position consistent with integrated North American nylon resin and film production operating under USMCA. Peru and South Korea are also notable sources. Polyamide film used in food-contact packaging may be subject to FDA food-contact material regulations, and importers should ensure compliance with applicable food-contact substance notifications.

A multilayer film where the polyamide layer constitutes the essential character — typically the dominant layer by thickness or function — may still classify under 392092. However, if the film is a laminate of dissimilar plastics or includes a non-plastic layer, it likely classifies under heading 3921 (other plates and sheets of plastics) or a composite-article heading. The GRI essential-character analysis and the specific layer construction should be reviewed with a licensed customs broker before filing.
Polyamide resins and films intended for food-contact use must comply with FDA food additive regulations under 21 CFR, which specify permitted polymer types, additives, and extractable limits. Importers should obtain a food-contact compliance statement from the manufacturer confirming the film meets applicable FDA food-contact substance authorizations for the intended use conditions (temperature, food type, contact duration). FDA does not conduct routine admissibility review at the border for plastic films, but compliance documentation should be maintained for post-entry audit purposes.
