Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 711021 when importing or exporting unwrought palladium in its raw form or as powder. An example would be a shipment of palladium powder for use in catalytic converters in automotive manufacturing.
This code specifically covers unwrought palladium, distinguishing it from HS-6 711022, which pertains to palladium in semi-manufactured forms. If you are dealing with palladium bars or sheets, you would classify those under the latter.
Palladium is a precious metal widely used in electronics, dentistry, and jewelry. When shipping unwrought palladium, ensure it is properly packaged to prevent contamination or loss during transit.
As you prepare your shipment, consider the purity of the palladium, as this can affect customs duties and regulations. Be aware of any national digits that may apply in your country for accurate classification.
