3904.30.60.00 - Other

This HTS category, 3904.30.60.00, encompasses "Other" vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymers in their primary forms. These are polymers that are specifically composed of both vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate monomers, excluding those specifically defined in other subheadings. The primary forms for these copolymers generally include powders, granules, flakes, or liquid dispersions, as defined by Chapter 39 of the HTS. The classification hinges on the material composition and the absence of features that would place them into more specific subcategories.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from sibling entries. For instance, while both are vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymers, 3904.30.20.00 specifically covers terpolymers containing less than 50 percent by weight of vinyl acetate derivatives and that are *not* polymerized from aromatic or modified aromatic monomers. Therefore, 3904.30.60.00 would cover vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymers that do not meet the specific compositional or monomer criteria of the sibling category, such as those with a higher percentage of vinyl acetate or those polymerized from different monomer combinations.

As a leaf node in the HTS, this category represents a final classification point for these specific copolymers. When classifying goods under this code, it is essential to confirm that the product is indeed a vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer in a primary form and that it does not fit the more detailed specifications of any preceding or sibling subheadings within the 3904.30 group. This "Other" designation is a residual category for compliant, yet otherwise unclassified, copolymers within this group.
