Heading 8108 — Titanium; articles thereof, including waste and scrap
Chapter 81: Other base metals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 810830 when importing or exporting titanium waste and scrap. This includes leftover materials from titanium manufacturing processes, such as shavings, turnings, and cuttings. For example, if you're shipping titanium shavings from a machining operation, this is the correct code to use.
This code specifically covers waste and scrap of titanium, distinguishing it from other forms of titanium products like bars or sheets classified under different HS codes. For instance, HS-6 810831 applies to titanium bars, while HS-6 810832 pertains to titanium plates.
When dealing with titanium waste, it's important to ensure that the material is indeed scrap and not a product that can be reused or recycled in another form. Misclassification could lead to customs issues or penalties.
If you're unsure whether your titanium material qualifies as waste or scrap, consider how it was produced and its intended use. If it's a byproduct from manufacturing processes and not suitable for direct sale as a product, it likely falls under this HS-6.
