Yes. Plastic articles intended for food contact—including plates, cups, bowls, and food storage containers—are subject to FDA requirements governing the composition of food-contact materials and permissible migration of substances. Importers should ensure that resins and additives comply with applicable FDA food-contact regulations before entry.
A plastic travel mug without a vacuum-insulated wall is generally classified under 392410 as kitchenware of plastics. If the article has a vacuum-insulated construction (double-walled with evacuated space), it may instead fall under the heading for vacuum flasks and vessels, which is a more specific provision. The presence or absence of a vacuum insulation layer is the key distinguishing factor.
