00:02:41.984 --> 00:02:45.646
In case you missed something, this
00:02:45.646 --> 00:02:48.512
webinar, as well as other webinars
00:02:48.512 --> 00:02:52.686
presented by other NI S's have been
00:02:52.686 --> 00:02:56.069
recorded or will be available on our
00:02:56.069 --> 00:02:57.877
website.
00:02:57.877 --> 00:03:03.348
Here we have the CBP's binding
00:03:03.348 --> 00:03:08.804
ruling program, enabling importers and
00:03:08.804 --> 00:03:13.764
binding classification, and areas are
00:03:13.764 --> 00:03:15.833
classification, county of origin,
00:03:15.833 --> 00:03:18.178
marking and trade program or agreement.
00:03:18.178 --> 00:03:23.382
And keep in mind, it will be for
00:03:23.382 --> 00:03:26.250
prospective shipmentsle only and you can
00:03:26.250 --> 00:03:28.348
find the link on the bottom.
00:03:28.348 --> 00:03:34.350
If you can't fill out the form
00:03:34.350 --> 00:03:37.457
electron likely, this link will taking
00:03:37.457 --> 00:03:40.584
you to the requirements of the linking
00:03:40.584 --> 00:03:40.861
program.
00:03:40.861 --> 00:03:43.715
It is important to stay current with
00:03:43.715 --> 00:03:48.704
the harmonized tariff schedule, , as
00:03:48.704 --> 00:03:52.620
they are constantly rolling additions
00:03:52.620 --> 00:03:59.114
and agreements and as well as changing
00:03:59.114 --> 00:04:03.323
rights. The link will taking to the
00:04:03.323 --> 00:04:05.109
current version of the tearive.
00:04:05.109 --> 00:04:08.791
That is an example of the harmonized
00:04:08.791 --> 00:04:14.260
system schedule, including 6506, we'll
00:04:14.260 --> 00:04:17.143
discuss today. On the international, we
00:04:17.143 --> 00:04:21.046
have the chapter, , heading and
00:04:21.046 --> 00:04:25.231
subheading. And this year it will be
00:04:25.231 --> 00:04:30.451
Chapter 6 5, so the heading will be 50 6
00:04:30.451 --> 00:04:35.554
providing other headgear whether lined
00:04:35.554 --> 00:04:39.555
or trimmed and subheading for 6506.10
00:04:39.555 --> 00:04:40.876
for safety headgear.
00:04:40.876 --> 00:04:44.248
Moving to county specific. We have
00:04:44.248 --> 00:04:51.044
6506.10.30, of reinforced or laminated
00:04:51.044 --> 00:04:54.672
plastics and similar to what we'll be
00:04:54.672 --> 00:04:55.985
discussing later on.
00:04:55.985 --> 00:04:58.102
From physical classification, we
00:04:58.102 --> 00:05:06.946
have 6506.10.45, proing for athletic,
00:05:06.946 --> 00:05:12.178
recreational or sporting headgear.
00:05:12.178 --> 00:05:22.327
There's a total of six GRIs for
00:05:22.327 --> 00:05:25.172
determination we can see the
00:05:25.172 --> 00:05:26.236
classification on this slide.
00:05:26.236 --> 00:05:30.066
We have notes, notes, and more notes
00:05:30.066 --> 00:05:31.713
shall and we have general notes, section
00:05:31.713 --> 00:05:35.628
notes, chapter notes, subheading notes,
00:05:35.628 --> 00:05:39.808
additional U.S. notes, and statistical
00:05:39.808 --> 00:05:43.445
notes. These are the classifications
00:05:43.445 --> 00:05:47.374
when arriving at classification
00:05:47.374 --> 00:05:47.375
decisions.
00:05:47.375 --> 00:05:56.210
And explanatory notes are the -- the
00:05:56.210 --> 00:05:59.073
classification of goods and nonbinding
00:05:59.073 --> 00:06:06.636
and usually indicative of the
00:06:06.636 --> 00:06:09.525
hormoneized schedule. The link at the
00:06:09.525 --> 00:06:12.399
bottom. Here we have the areas of
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:19.170
responsibility in NIS 548. I handle the
00:06:19.170 --> 00:06:22.578
Chapter 6 5, headgear and participants,
00:06:22.578 --> 00:06:31.700
and change's apairal, and worn clothing
00:06:31.700 --> 00:06:33.268
heading 6309.
00:06:33.268 --> 00:06:41.082
Okay. Let's get started. So mid
00:06:41.082 --> 00:06:44.457
last year, the field started receiving
00:06:44.457 --> 00:06:49.925
several protests and receiving from HDS
00:06:49.925 --> 00:07:00.597
6506.10.60.45 here. And it is the
00:07:00.597 --> 00:07:04.504
athletic recreational sporting head
00:07:04.504 --> 00:07:07.118
gear, in the including plastics.
00:07:07.118 --> 00:07:15.192
And to 6506.10.30.45 here, and
00:07:15.192 --> 00:07:18.316
includes all of the headgear, all
00:07:18.316 --> 00:07:22.467
reinforced or segregated plastics.
00:07:22.467 --> 00:07:25.593
And some of those enforced with
00:07:25.593 --> 00:07:30.826
collusions for section 301 for these
00:07:30.826 --> 00:07:31.854
specific numbers.
00:07:31.854 --> 00:07:35.535
We ran a query in one of our systems
00:07:35.535 --> 00:07:38.659
to get the transfer for previous years
00:07:38.659 --> 00:07:42.039
to compare them and be able to
00:07:42.039 --> 00:07:43.873
understand what the issues with a for
00:07:43.873 --> 00:07:48.056
the tariff numbers. On the graph we see
00:07:48.056 --> 00:07:54.293
the blue line here, and it is for
00:07:54.293 --> 00:08:01.348
6506.30.45, forehead he had plastics,
00:08:01.348 --> 00:08:03.952
and compared to the orange line, so it
00:08:03.952 --> 00:08:06.547
is made above the orange line.
00:08:06.547 --> 00:08:15.935
Let orange line is for 6506.60.45
00:08:15.935 --> 00:08:19.847
for nonreinforced plastic.
00:08:19.847 --> 00:08:23.744
Take a look at years 2020 and 2021.
00:08:23.744 --> 00:08:26.618
There's a spike right here on the
00:08:26.618 --> 00:08:28.975
orange line. It is equivalent to
00:08:28.975 --> 00:08:33.123
approximately 68 percent increase in
00:08:33.123 --> 00:08:40.168
value, and these are when the conclusions
00:08:40.168 --> 00:08:40.938
came out.
00:08:40.938 --> 00:08:44.890
In 2022, there's another noticeable
00:08:44.890 --> 00:08:49.112
increase, the blue line we see here, and
00:08:49.112 --> 00:08:53.976
it is for athletic gear, reason coursed
00:08:53.976 --> 00:08:57.651
or laminated plastics and the collusion
00:08:57.651 --> 00:09:01.566
of north one remain in effect.
00:09:01.566 --> 00:09:04.165
Take a look at the quoesh yes, it
00:09:04.165 --> 00:09:14.073
is. Here we have 6506.10.30.45,
00:09:14.073 --> 00:09:16.687
collusion of laminated plastics for about
00:09:16.687 --> 00:09:20.083
a year. Meaning the importers didn't
00:09:20.083 --> 00:09:25.051
have to pay duties at all since this is
00:09:25.051 --> 00:09:28.620
duty free to begin with, however, the
00:09:28.620 --> 00:09:29.742
exclusion is now expired.
00:09:29.742 --> 00:09:34.154
In other words, headgear coming from
00:09:34.154 --> 00:09:42.727
China 6 50 6.30.35, and collusion of
00:09:42.727 --> 00:09:48.719
9903.88 .15, and 75%.
00:09:48.719 --> 00:09:56.277
And here we have 6506.10.60.45,
00:09:56.277 --> 00:10:00.455
provided safety headgear, and not
00:10:00.455 --> 00:10:03.571
reinforced headgear plastics.
00:10:03.571 --> 00:10:10.874
Here, it is until 9/30/2023,
00:10:10.874 --> 00:10:15.832
allowing to bring in gear without
00:10:15.832 --> 00:10:20.131
reinforced plastics without subject to
00:10:20.131 --> 00:10:22.604
duty on section 301.
00:10:22.604 --> 00:10:27.547
To find out if headgear is
00:10:27.547 --> 00:10:31.461
reinforced or laminated plastics is to
00:10:31.461 --> 00:10:34.828
send it to the CBP lab.
00:10:34.828 --> 00:10:39.798
What are helmets composed of? There
00:10:39.798 --> 00:10:43.440
are three distinct parts: The shell,
00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:46.839
the liner, and the strap.
00:10:46.839 --> 00:10:50.140
And there are three kinds of
00:10:50.140 --> 00:10:53.864
materials widely used for the out are
00:10:53.864 --> 00:10:59.374
shells on most helmets. We are ABS,
00:10:59.374 --> 00:11:11.098
acrylonitrile beauty Dean desire even.
00:11:11.098 --> 00:11:12.405
PVC --
00:11:12.405 --> 00:11:19.435
ABS is most used for bicycle
00:11:19.435 --> 00:11:24.671
helmets, ski helmets skateboard and
00:11:24.671 --> 00:11:32.743
safety helmets. And PVC is light weight,
00:11:32.743 --> 00:11:38.470
heat and usually made for poly
00:11:38.470 --> 00:11:47.568
carbonate, ECS -- PVC is a more
00:11:47.568 --> 00:11:51.239
transparent material, but a little light
00:11:51.239 --> 00:11:55.390
than other materials. And light weight,
00:11:55.390 --> 00:12:00.361
heat insulation, heat preservation and
00:12:00.361 --> 00:12:02.179
flame retardant and light construction.
00:12:02.179 --> 00:12:02.693

00:12:02.693 --> 00:12:09.485
The other one is PC has excellent in
00:12:09.485 --> 00:12:13.659
impact, also excellent in impact
00:12:13.659 --> 00:12:19.365
resistance, weather resistance, weather
00:12:19.365 --> 00:12:25.610
retardant and however, this made with
00:12:25.610 --> 00:12:30.578
poly cash gnat shells and more expensive
00:12:30.578 --> 00:12:31.608
than other materials.
00:12:31.608 --> 00:12:37.323
And poly edge reason, material in
00:12:37.323 --> 00:12:42.257
plastic bottles. More expensive than
00:12:42.257 --> 00:12:44.853
other ones and newer materials in
00:12:44.853 --> 00:12:48.249
development for most helmets. For
00:12:48.249 --> 00:12:57.650
example, military helmets have UHMPME,
00:12:57.650 --> 00:13:02.057
more effective for preventing bullets
00:13:02.057 --> 00:13:05.494
from passing the old materials. And
00:13:05.494 --> 00:13:08.304
eventually, some of the science may be
00:13:08.304 --> 00:13:11.721
adapted to sporting helmets as well.
00:13:11.721 --> 00:13:16.148
We have the liner now, the liner
00:13:16.148 --> 00:13:18.499
being the most important part of the
00:13:18.499 --> 00:13:25.174
helmet. Is the foam usually poly sty
00:13:25.174 --> 00:13:28.393
reason or EPS, and some of the foam used
00:13:28.393 --> 00:13:34.109
in the bicycle helmet, and expanded EPP,
00:13:34.109 --> 00:13:39.842
and standed poly you're thaen, EPU, and
00:13:39.842 --> 00:13:42.975
each type has different manufacturing to
00:13:42.975 --> 00:13:48.448
ink. And the straps mostly made of
00:13:48.448 --> 00:13:52.358
nylon or poly propylene. And the
00:13:52.358 --> 00:13:58.078
difference in fabric, finish and weave
00:13:58.078 --> 00:14:01.198
and original smaller characteristics.
00:14:01.198 --> 00:14:06.415
What is headgear reinforced or
00:14:06.415 --> 00:14:11.117
laminated plastics. This frame is not
00:14:11.117 --> 00:14:14.755
defined in the tariff, and if not
00:14:14.755 --> 00:14:17.902
defined we're looking at explanatory
00:14:17.902 --> 00:14:20.234
notes as well as dictionary definitions.
00:14:20.234 --> 00:14:24.417
We'll look at dictionary definitions
00:14:24.417 --> 00:14:24.418
first.
00:14:24.418 --> 00:14:31.478
The Webster as military dictionary,
00:14:31.478 --> 00:14:36.930
defined laminated plasticcing and
00:14:36.930 --> 00:14:42.401
support, stronger support. The American
00:14:42.401 --> 00:14:49.171
Heritage Dictionary to find a strain and
00:14:49.171 --> 00:14:50.255
-- material.
00:14:50.255 --> 00:14:55.196
Oxford English dictionary,
00:14:55.196 --> 00:14:57.775
reinforced plastic, as plastic
00:14:57.775 --> 00:15:00.143
strengthened by the inclusion of a layer
00:15:00.143 --> 00:15:01.451
of fiber.
00:15:01.451 --> 00:15:07.446
And Webster's third new
00:15:07.446 --> 00:15:11.605
international dictionary, defined
00:15:11.605 --> 00:15:16.561
laminated plastic as a plastic made of
00:15:16.561 --> 00:15:20.200
supervisor posed layers of paper, word,
00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:24.914
or fabric bonded or impregnated with the
00:15:24.914 --> 00:15:27.784
resin and compressed under heat.
00:15:27.784 --> 00:15:31.157
The key is the reinforcing material
00:15:31.157 --> 00:15:33.004
straightens the plastic.
00:15:33.004 --> 00:15:39.254
Now, look at the explanatory notes
00:15:39.254 --> 00:15:45.513
to heading 6506. It says this heeding
00:15:45.513 --> 00:15:49.396
covers all hats not classified in this
00:15:49.396 --> 00:15:57.437
chapter or Chapter 6 3, 68 or 95, and
00:15:57.437 --> 00:16:07.088
coverage letic head gear, military or
00:16:07.088 --> 00:16:14.641
firearm's helmets motorcycleists miners
00:16:14.641 --> 00:16:18.035
construction workers helmets whether or
00:16:18.035 --> 00:16:21.218
not fitted with protective padding or in
00:16:21.218 --> 00:16:24.559
the case of certain hell et cetera. .
00:16:24.559 --> 00:16:27.430
Heading also covered hats with headgear
00:16:27.430 --> 00:16:30.813
of rubber, Lieger or composition
00:16:30.813 --> 00:16:35.256
leather, fur skin or artificial fur.
00:16:35.256 --> 00:16:39.947
Mothers or artificial lowers metal.
00:16:39.947 --> 00:16:45.951
And this doesn't explain the xib --
00:16:45.951 --> 00:16:49.066
however, used to reinforce plates,
00:16:49.066 --> 00:16:53.752
sheets, and plastics. So the ENs also
00:16:53.752 --> 00:16:56.366
mentioned the plates, sheets of plastics
00:16:56.366 --> 00:17:01.060
in chapter 39 may incorporate a
00:17:01.060 --> 00:17:03.645
reinforcement, or supporting mesh or
00:17:03.645 --> 00:17:08.083
other material. Like wire, glass,
00:17:08.083 --> 00:17:10.956
fibers, et cetera, and needs to be
00:17:10.956 --> 00:17:13.043
embedded in the body of the plastics.
00:17:13.043 --> 00:17:17.755
I will take a look at other terms,
00:17:17.755 --> 00:17:21.911
lamb nation. The bonding of one or more
00:17:21.911 --> 00:17:26.100
layers of preexisting materials.
00:17:26.100 --> 00:17:31.294
Note 3 to Chapter 5 9, for the
00:17:31.294 --> 00:17:35.979
purposes of heading 5903, laminated with
00:17:35.979 --> 00:17:39.356
plastics means products made by the
00:17:39.356 --> 00:17:42.765
assembly of one or more layers of
00:17:42.765 --> 00:17:46.240
fabrics or one or more sheets of film or
00:17:46.240 --> 00:17:54.241
plastics, when combined film and
00:17:54.241 --> 00:17:58.169
plastics together, and whether or not
00:17:58.169 --> 00:18:01.288
the sheets or film of plastics are
00:18:01.288 --> 00:18:04.145
visible to the naked eye in the cross
00:18:04.145 --> 00:18:07.529
section. And the process of lamb
00:18:07.529 --> 00:18:13.279
nation, the process of adhesive of one
00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:16.671
to another, and pressed with heat. In
00:18:16.671 --> 00:18:19.274
other words, the front side and backside
00:18:19.274 --> 00:18:21.616
are both made of material.
00:18:21.616 --> 00:18:26.305
And those enforced are the ones in
00:18:26.305 --> 00:18:29.247
primary material and second to material
00:18:29.247 --> 00:18:32.601
making it more durable, turf,
00:18:32.601 --> 00:18:37.276
stronger. Think of Congress create steal
00:18:37.276 --> 00:18:38.332
wire or remember ar.
00:18:38.332 --> 00:18:41.721
And think of plastics. If the
00:18:41.721 --> 00:18:47.437
textile takes metal or other material
00:18:47.437 --> 00:18:50.823
making it reinforced. The key is the
00:18:50.823 --> 00:18:58.386
reinforce the material straightens the
00:18:58.386 --> 00:18:58.387
plastic.
00:18:58.387 --> 00:19:03.351
Here we have the headquarters
00:19:03.351 --> 00:19:13.768
ruling, asking 65 owe 06.60.30, and not
00:19:13.768 --> 00:19:14.550
reinforced plastics.
00:19:14.550 --> 00:19:25.490
Used with molding and -- Chapter 9
00:19:25.490 --> 00:19:28.338
for plastics and Chapter 7 0 for
00:19:28.338 --> 00:19:31.990
glass. Chapter 39 is certain
00:19:31.990 --> 00:19:33.568
combinations of plastics and materials
00:19:33.568 --> 00:19:37.506
other than textiles, provided they
00:19:37.506 --> 00:19:40.893
maintain the character of articles or
00:19:40.893 --> 00:19:41.138
plastics.
00:19:41.138 --> 00:19:45.602
Also, products consisting of fiber
00:19:45.602 --> 00:19:51.579
and heat adhesion consisting of
00:19:51.579 --> 00:19:51.853
character.
00:19:51.853 --> 00:19:55.227
The character, if paper or articles
00:19:55.227 --> 00:20:00.447
of glass fibers. They are classified in
00:20:00.447 --> 00:20:05.911
Chapter 8 8 or 70s at the case maybe.
00:20:05.911 --> 00:20:09.554
Chapter 7 0, explanatory notes
00:20:09.554 --> 00:20:14.271
include combining plastic fibers with
00:20:14.271 --> 00:20:17.926
rigid plastics. If having lost the
00:20:17.926 --> 00:20:20.806
character of less fibers article.
00:20:20.806 --> 00:20:25.254
And composed of layers of woven
00:20:25.254 --> 00:20:28.632
fiber glass material, intone Nate and
00:20:28.632 --> 00:20:31.763
bound together with plastic. Especially
00:20:31.763 --> 00:20:36.178
PS chapter 39 plastics and Chapter 7 0
00:20:36.178 --> 00:20:36.449
class.
00:20:36.449 --> 00:20:39.838
And determined the article and
00:20:39.838 --> 00:20:44.792
plastic, and basic manufacturing, and
00:20:44.792 --> 00:20:50.532
author to lost or laminated plastics,
00:20:50.532 --> 00:20:53.923
therefore the laminated helmet classified
00:20:53.923 --> 00:20:58.354
in 6506.10.30.30.
00:20:58.354 --> 00:21:04.607
Okay. So these are examples sent to
00:21:04.607 --> 00:21:07.728
the lab or analysis. On the sample, the
00:21:07.728 --> 00:21:11.912
plastic shell almost completely
00:21:11.912 --> 00:21:16.602
surrounded the EPS foam, and almost
00:21:16.602 --> 00:21:17.387
covering the edged.
00:21:17.387 --> 00:21:20.511
I have questions for you. And do
00:21:20.511 --> 00:21:23.636
you think the phone reinforces the
00:21:23.636 --> 00:21:27.064
plastic? This is a question we get. If
00:21:27.064 --> 00:21:29.122
you know the answer, you can type in the
00:21:29.122 --> 00:21:31.214
chat box yes or no.
00:21:31.214 --> 00:21:45.791
I see a lot of nos. I have only see
00:21:45.791 --> 00:21:49.179
two yes -- three, four, okay. Yes,
00:21:49.179 --> 00:21:50.554
yes. No. Okay.
00:21:50.554 --> 00:22:00.635
So you ready for the answer? No.
00:22:00.635 --> 00:22:03.507
The foam doesn't reinforce the plastic.
00:22:03.507 --> 00:22:08.198
The key is the reinforced material
00:22:08.198 --> 00:22:11.066
reinforces the plastic and therefore has
00:22:11.066 --> 00:22:12.913
to be embedded in the plastic.
00:22:12.913 --> 00:22:18.879
Okay. On this picture, we have a
00:22:18.879 --> 00:22:23.843
bicycle helmet. The plastic shell
00:22:23.843 --> 00:22:29.311
bonded on a small amount of glue. We see
00:22:29.311 --> 00:22:30.856
the glue here.
00:22:30.856 --> 00:22:35.024
The glue was not formerly applied
00:22:35.024 --> 00:22:38.408
and does not cover the surface. Could
00:22:38.408 --> 00:22:42.340
we say that is a laminated helmet? You
00:22:42.340 --> 00:22:46.803
can type the answer in the chat box.
00:22:46.803 --> 00:22:57.717
Okay. No. No. Okay. Well,
00:22:57.717 --> 00:23:01.369
exactly, the answer is no. Remember,
00:23:01.369 --> 00:23:05.248
lamb nation is the bonding one or more
00:23:05.248 --> 00:23:08.893
layers of preexisting materials and
00:23:08.893 --> 00:23:12.028
compressed under here. And here the
00:23:12.028 --> 00:23:15.942
bonding only happens in certain spots,
00:23:15.942 --> 00:23:19.065
so the answer is no. It is not
00:23:19.065 --> 00:23:19.845
considered laminated.
00:23:19.845 --> 00:23:25.313
Okay. On this last picture, the
00:23:25.313 --> 00:23:31.030
outer shell completely surrounds the EPS
00:23:31.030 --> 00:23:33.896
foam, and you see this picture in the
00:23:33.896 --> 00:23:37.318
middle of the there's also fabric
00:23:37.318 --> 00:23:40.330
coverings at the edges.
00:23:40.330 --> 00:23:43.048
The outer shell contains fiber
00:23:43.048 --> 00:23:47.727
glass. Could we say that helmet is
00:23:47.727 --> 00:23:53.719
reinforced plastic? Good. Yes. Yes. I
00:23:53.719 --> 00:23:58.674
see a lot of yes. Anyone -- anyone
00:23:58.674 --> 00:24:01.815
thinks otherwise? It is not considered
00:24:01.815 --> 00:24:02.337
reinforced?
00:24:02.337 --> 00:24:10.145
Okay. The answer is yes. It is
00:24:10.145 --> 00:24:13.782
considered reinforced. A helmet
00:24:13.782 --> 00:24:16.915
considered reinforced plastic because of
00:24:16.915 --> 00:24:20.540
the fiberglass which is embedded in the
00:24:20.540 --> 00:24:21.856
plastic in the shell.
00:24:21.856 --> 00:24:25.500
Remember, it can be either off,
00:24:25.500 --> 00:24:27.839
reinforced or of laminated plastics.
00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:30.966
If you have a helmet online
00:24:30.966 --> 00:24:34.089
laminated, but not reinforced plastics,
00:24:34.089 --> 00:24:40.588
you can still enter it under 6506.10.30
00:24:40.588 --> 00:24:46.092
and reinforced plastics. And vice versa
00:24:46.092 --> 00:24:50.265
if you have a helmet not reinforced, it
00:24:50.265 --> 00:24:56.005
can still be head put in this heading.
00:24:56.005 --> 00:24:59.837
And I hope you have learned a lot in
00:24:59.837 --> 00:25:02.797
this presentation and whether or not the
00:25:02.797 --> 00:25:08.027
helmet is reinforce the plastic
00:25:08.027 --> 00:25:14.791
laminated head gear. These are links
00:25:14.791 --> 00:25:16.617
