HS Code 3925Plastics; builders' wares n.e.c. or included

What is HS code 3925?

Builders' ware means fixed parts that go into a house or other building. Think of a door, a window frame, a shutter or a large water tank on a roof.

Customs offices in many countries also call it HSN code 3925. The first four digits are shared worldwide. Each country may add more digits after them for its own tariff.

The heading sits in Chapter 39, which covers plastics and articles thereof. If your product is a plastic building component and no other heading in the chapter names it more exactly, 3925 is the place to look.

HS 3925 subheadings: tanks, doors, windows, blinds

Heading 3925 splits into four subheadings. Each one covers a different kind of plastic building product.

• A large plastic water storage tank is the classic example. The size limit matters, so measure capacity before you pick this code.
• This is the code to check for plastic window frames and door sets.
• Plastic roller shutters and slatted blinds belong here.
• 392590: builders' ware not elsewhere specified or included in heading 3925. Use it only when the item is plastic builders' ware but does not fit the three codes above.

How to choose between 3925 and nearby plastics headings

Many plastic goods look alike, so check the neighbours before you settle on 3925. Ask what the item does and what shape it has when it ships.

If it is a rod, stick or profile shape that has not been worked into a finished part, look at 3916. If it is a tube, pipe, hose or a fitting such as an elbow or flange, look at 3917. Floor, wall and ceiling coverings in rolls or tiles go under 3918.

Baths, sinks, wash-basins and lavatory pans are sanitary ware, so they fall under 3922. A container made to pack or carry goods, or a lid or cap, belongs in 3923. A tank is different. A big tank built for a building fits 392510, but a smaller packing container may fit 3923.

If the item is a plastic article that no heading names, 3926 is the catch-all for Chapter 39. Builders' ware has its own heading, so try 3925 first. When you are still unsure, run the product through the HS code classifier and compare the result with the subheading list above.

HS code 3925 import export data and finding suppliers

Knowing the code is the first step. The next question is who trades the goods. You can search by HS code to see who imports and exports a product, then look for buyers and suppliers of plastic builders' ware.

Other headings in Chapter 39

Chapter 39 starts with plastics in primary forms, such as polymers of ethylene, propylene and styrene. It moves on to waste and scrap, semi-finished shapes, pipes, coverings and sheets. Finished articles come last, including sanitary ware, packing goods and household items.
