Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 250200 when importing or exporting unroasted iron pyrites, which are often used in the production of sulfuric acid or as a source of sulfur. For example, a shipment of unroasted iron pyrites in bulk for chemical manufacturing would fall under this code.
This code specifically applies to unroasted iron pyrites, distinguishing it from HS-6 250210, which covers roasted iron pyrites. Roasted pyrites are processed to enhance their sulfur content and are used differently in industrial applications.
Unroasted iron pyrites are typically found in a natural state and are characterized by their yellowish color and metallic luster. They are often sold in bulk or in bags for various industrial uses, including as a raw material in the production of fertilizers.
When classifying your goods, ensure that the product is indeed unroasted. If your shipment includes roasted iron pyrites, you will need to use a different HS code. Accurate classification is essential to avoid customs delays and potential fines.
