8001 — Tin; unwrought
Chapter 80: Tin and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 8001 when importing unwrought tin, such as a shipment of pure tin ingots or bars for manufacturing electronics. This heading covers both non-alloyed and alloyed forms of tin, which are crucial for various applications.
When deciding between HS-6 800110 and HS-6 800120, consider the composition of your tin. If you have pure tin, select 800110. If your shipment includes tin mixed with other metals, such as lead or copper, then 800120 is the appropriate choice.
It's important to note that the classification can impact duties and regulations. For example, alloyed tin may have different tariff rates compared to non-alloyed tin, so ensure you verify the exact nature of your product before proceeding.
