Last updated: April 2026 dataPlastic containers with a capacity exceeding 300 liters โ including storage tanks, vats, and cisterns used in agriculture, water treatment, chemical processing, and industrial fluid management โ are classified under a single 10-digit line (3925100000). The large-capacity threshold is the key classification boundary; containers at or below 300 liters fall elsewhere in Chapter 39. These bulky articles are widely traded as infrastructure components, and their country of origin is relevant to Section 301 exposure for shipments from certain sources.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page โ verify before relying on it.
The threshold is a capacity exceeding 300 liters (approximately 80 U.S. gallons). Containers at exactly 300 liters or below are not classified here; they fall under other Chapter 39 provisions or, depending on construction and use, potentially elsewhere in the tariff schedule.
Standard customs entry applies for most industrial plastic tanks. However, if a tank arrives pre-filled or contaminated with a regulated substance, EPA or DOT hazmat regulations may apply to the contents. The tanks themselves, as empty plastic articles, do not trigger a mandatory admissibility agency review.
