As you requested, your sample is being returned.

The applicable subheading for the Self-Sticking Soft Spots will be 3919.90.5060, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for self-adhesive plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, strip and other flat shapes, of plastics, other.
