PET import tariff (EU)

The PET import tariff into the European Union is 6.5% as a standard rate, but what you actually pay depends on where the resin comes from — and, for some origins, on anti-dumping measures.

The EU's most-favoured-nation (MFN) import duty on PET (HS heading 3907) is 6.5%. Origins with a trade agreement enter duty-free (0%), and the EU has at times applied anti-dumping duties to PET from certain origins. The table below lists the EU import duty on PET by major country of origin, followed by the customs (HS/CN) codes.
