HTS heading 3924 is a broad product category for certain household and personal-use articles made of plastics. It covers items such as tableware, kitchenware, other household articles, and hygienic or toilet articles, provided the product fits the heading’s scope and is principally made of plastic.
The four-digit heading is only the starting point. To reach the correct eight-digit HTSUS code, follow the indented subheadings under 3924. These commonly distinguish the article by its function or type, such as tableware, kitchenware, household articles, or hygienic and toilet articles. Review the full product description, including any material or construction distinctions, rather than choosing based only on a product’s marketing name.
What to check
- Describe the item’s actual use, design, and principal material before comparing HTSUS descriptions.
- Read every subheading under 3924 and continue through the legally relevant indents until you reach the eight-digit code.
- Check whether the article is principally plastic and whether another HTS heading more specifically describes its function or construction.
- Compare similar products carefully: a serving item, storage item, cleaning article, and personal-care article may fall in different subheadings.
- Verify the classification against current official HTSUS notes, section and chapter notes, customs rulings, and broker advice when the product has mixed materials or unusual features.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
