Last updated: August 2026 dataSacks and bags made from plastics other than polyethylene — such as polypropylene, PVC, or nylon — enter under a single line (3923290000) and serve diverse end-uses from woven PP agricultural sacks to specialty barrier bags for food and industrial applications. China is the dominant supplier, followed by Mexico and Vietnam. Importers should pay close attention to whether a bag's primary polymer is ethylene-based, since a misidentification of resin type can shift classification to heading 392321, with different duty and trade-remedy implications.

The key question is whether the bag is made from strips or the like of plastics (which would pull it into Chapter 39 as a plastics article) versus textile-like woven fabric. CBP General Rule of Interpretation 1 and relevant chapter notes govern: if the strips are of a width not exceeding 5 mm and the article is essentially a plastics product, Chapter 39 typically applies. A licensed customs broker can help evaluate the specific construction.
Yes. Plastic sacks and bags of non-ethylene polymers originating in China are subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers should verify the current list and any applicable product exclusions with a licensed customs broker, as the scope and rates have been subject to periodic revision.
