Last updated: April 2026 dataPlastic tableware, kitchenware, and household toilet articles — ranging from food storage containers and mixing bowls to soap dispensers and bathroom accessories — are among the most widely traded consumer plastic goods entering the US market. FDA oversight applies to plastic articles intended for food contact, requiring compliance with applicable food-contact substance regulations before importation. Section 301 tariffs affect a significant share of this category given China's role as a leading supplier, and importers should verify whether specific product lines have received exclusion rulings.

Plastic articles that contact food must comply with FDA food-contact substance regulations, which govern the types of resins and additives permissible. Importers should obtain supplier documentation confirming material compliance and be prepared for FDA examination at the port of entry. Consulting a licensed customs broker or regulatory specialist is advisable for complex product lines.
Plastic toilet articles — such as toothbrush holders, soap dishes, and cosmetic organizers — are classified within this heading alongside kitchenware. The key classification test is whether the article's primary use is personal hygiene or household utility; articles with a more specialized function (e.g., medical or industrial) may belong in a different heading.
