COPPER CLAD LAMINATE (HTS 7410.21.30) ALERT
THE US CUSTOMS SERVICE HAS RECEIVED A COMPLAINT THAT TRADE STATISTICS
FOR COPPER CLAD LAMINATE (HTS 7410.21.30) IMPORTATIONS ARE INCORRECT.
AFTER CONDUCTING A STUDY OF CUSTOMS ENTRIES FOR COPPER CLAD LAMINATES,
IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT THE QUANTITIES ARE SOMETIMES ENTERED
INCORRECTLY ON THESE ENTRIES. THE HTS REQUIRES THAT THE QUANTITIES OF
COPPER CLAD LAMINATE SHIPMENTS BE REPORTED ON CUSTOMS ENTRIES AS BOTH
THE TOTAL NUMBER OF SQUARE METERS (M2) AND KILOGRAMS (KG). IT HAS BEEN
OBSERVED THAT COMMERCIAL INVOICES FOR COPPER CLAD LAMINATE SHIPMENTS
SOMETIMES SHOW ONLY THE NUMBER OF ROLLS OR SHEETS OF LAMINATE, AND DO
NOT SHOW THE QUANTITIES IN SQUARE METERS AND KILOGRAMS.
IN ADDITION, INCORRECT STATISTICAL SUFFIXES ARE BEING USED IN
CLASSIFYING THE LAMINATES. A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION INCLUDING
INFORMATION ON THE BASE MATERIAL OF THE COPPER CLAD LAMINATE AND
WHETHER THE COPPER IS ON ONE OR TWO SIDES IS REQUIRED. IN ORDER TO
AVOID ENTRY REJECTION OR OTHER CORRECTIVE ACTION, PLEASE ENSURE THAT
THE QUANTITIES AND STATISTICAL SUFFIXES FOR ENTRIES OF HTS 7410.21.30
ARE ENTERED CORRECTLY.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, PLEASE CONTACT ITS MARIA TRILEVSKY OF THE LA
STC AT (562)980-3119 EXT. 262 OR NIS KATHY CAMPANELLI AT (212)466-5492.
