3924.10.30.00 - Trays 🖩

This HTS category, specifically 3924.10.30.00, covers trays manufactured from plastics. Trays are defined as flat, rigid articles with raised edges, designed to carry or display items. This can include a wide array of plastic trays used for various purposes, such as serving food and beverages, organizing items in households, or for industrial and commercial applications.

It's important to distinguish this category from its siblings. While 3924.10.20.00 covers specific items like plates, cups, and bowls, and 3924.10.10.00 is for dispensers, this 3924.10.30.00 classification is for items that primarily function as flat carrying surfaces with edges, differentiating them from the more vessel-like or dispensing nature of other tableware and kitchenware items. The "Other" category (3924.10.40.00) would encompass any plastic tableware or kitchenware items that do not fit into the specifically enumerated subcategories.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 3924.10.30.00. Therefore, the classification of a plastic item as a "tray" will depend on its physical characteristics and intended use, aligning with the broader scope of plastic tableware and kitchenware under heading 3924. The defining feature remains its function as a flat carrier with raised edges.
