Copper; powders of non-lamellar structure
Heading 7406 — Copper; powders and flakes
Chapter 74: Copper and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 740610 when importing or exporting copper powders that have a non-lamellar structure. For example, a shipment of fine copper powder used in 3D printing would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers copper powders that are not in a layered or lamellar form, distinguishing them from other copper products like flakes or granules classified under different HS-6 lines.
If you're dealing with copper flakes, you would refer to HS-6 740620 instead, which covers copper powders that are lamellar in structure. Understanding the difference is crucial for accurate classification.
When preparing your customs documentation, ensure that your product descriptions clearly state the form of copper powder. This will help avoid potential delays or issues with customs clearance.
