The HS code for Danpla sheet (PP corrugated sheet) is 39219090. The MFN import duty in Vietnam is 6% and VAT is 10%. If your supplier holds a valid C/O Form E from China or Form D from an ASEAN country, the effective duty drops to 0-3%. This guide covers the full HS classification, tax rates, customs document checklist, and when buying locally from ICD Vietnam makes more sense than importing.
HS code classification for Danpla sheet
Danpla sheet (PP Corrugated Sheet) is classified under the Harmonized System (HS) as follows:
| Product description | HS code |
|---|---|
| Sheets, plates, film and strip of polypropylene (PP), cellular/hollow-core | 39219090 |
| Solid PP sheet (non-cellular) | 39206200 |
| PP boxes and containers (finished product) | 39232990 |
Important: HS code 39219090 applies to Danpla sheet as a raw material - not yet fabricated into a finished product. If you import finished Danpla boxes (already die-cut and folded into shape), a different HS code applies.
Import duty rates for Danpla sheet (HS 39219090)
Applicable tax rates in Vietnam for HS code 39219090:
| Tax type | Rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| MFN import duty | 6% | Applies to imports from countries without an FTA with Vietnam |
| ACFTA duty (China) | 0-3% | ASEAN-China FTA; requires valid C/O Form E |
| AKFTA duty (South Korea) | 0% | ASEAN-Korea FTA; requires valid C/O Form AK |
| ATIGA duty (ASEAN intra-bloc) | 0% | Imports from ASEAN members; requires valid C/O Form D |
| VAT | 10% | Calculated on CIF value plus import duty |
Most Danpla sheet imported into Vietnam originates from China. With a valid C/O Form E, the effective import duty is only 0-3%, significantly lower than the standard MFN rate of 6%.
Customs document checklist for importing Danpla sheet
The standard set of documents required to clear Danpla sheet through Vietnamese customs:
- Import customs declaration - filed electronically through the VNACCS system
- Commercial invoice - issued by the foreign supplier
- Packing list - itemized packing details
- Bill of Lading (B/L) or Airway Bill - original transport document
- Certificate of Origin (C/O) - required to claim an FTA preferential duty rate
- Catalogue or Technical Specification sheet - product technical specs (typically requested on the first shipment)
Does Danpla sheet require mandatory quality inspection on import?
Danpla sheet under HS code 39219090 is not currently listed as a product subject to mandatory specialized quality inspection before customs clearance. Customs may conduct a random physical inspection of the shipment, but no specialized inspection registration is required.
If you are importing anti-static (ESD) Danpla sheet for the electronics industry, some buyers additionally require a RoHS compliance certificate or a surface resistivity test report from an accredited laboratory.
Buying Danpla sheet locally - a simpler alternative
For businesses that prefer to avoid the complexity of import procedures, purchasing Danpla sheet from a domestic manufacturer such as ICD Vietnam saves both time and logistics cost. Key advantages:
- No need to handle HS codes, import duties, or customs documents
- Fast delivery with no port clearance delays
- Full VAT invoice issued for accounting and audit purposes
- Small-quantity orders accepted - no need to fill a full container
