What decides the code
Reusable silicone drinking straws are classified as plastic tableware under heading 3924, specifically subheading 3924.10.40.00.
- Material decides the heading. Silicone is a plastic for tariff purposes, so the straws fall in heading 3924, tableware and kitchenware of plastics.
- The article is tableware for drinking, which places it in subheading 3924.10 rather than other household articles of heading 3924.
- A straw made of a non-plastic material, such as stainless steel or bamboo, would move to a different heading.
Common mistakes
- Classifying silicone straws under 3926 as other articles of plastics is wrong because heading 3924 covers tableware and kitchenware of plastics.
- Classifying the straws under 4823 as articles of paper or under 4419 as wooden tableware is wrong because the product is silicone, not paper or wood.
