What is NCM 3920.10.91?

NCM 3920.10.91 (39201091) is the Brazilian (Mercosur) code for ethylene polymer film for battery separators. Its official Portuguese description is “De densidade inferior a 0,94, com óleo de parafina e carga (sílica e negro de fumo), apresentando nervuras paralelas entre si, com uma resistência elétrica igual ou superior a 0,030 ohms.cm², mas inferior ou igual a 0,120 ohms.cm², em rolos, do tipo utilizado para a fabricação de separadores de acumuladores elétricos”.

What is the HS code for NCM 3920.10.91?

HS 3920.10 (Plastics; plates, sheets, film, foil and strip (not self-adhesive), of polymers of ethylene, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials). The first 6 digits of an NCM code are its international HS code; the last 2 digits are Brazil's own split.

Is an NCM code the same as an HS code?

The first 6 digits are the same in every country. NCM adds an item digit (7th) and a subitem digit (8th). A code ending in 00 means Brazil does not split that HS code further.

Which countries use NCM 3920.10.91?

All Mercosur members use the same NCM codes: Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay.
