811010
Antimony and articles thereof; unwrought antimony, powders
Heading 8110 — Antimony; articles thereof, including waste and scrap
Chapter 81: Other base metals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 811010 when importing or exporting unwrought antimony or powders made from antimony. For example, if you are shipping a bulk quantity of antimony ingots for use in semiconductor manufacturing, this is the correct code.
This code specifically applies to unwrought antimony, which is a metallic element often used in alloys and flame retardants. It differs from HS-6 811020, which covers antimony waste and scrap, not suitable for direct use in manufacturing.
If you’re dealing with antimony powders, such as those used in the production of batteries or as a pigment in plastics, you’ll also classify under this HS-6. It's crucial to distinguish these from other forms of antimony, like those found in HS-6 811090, which includes other articles made from antimony.
Understanding the specific applications of unwrought antimony can help in determining the appropriate customs duties and regulations. Make sure to check if your shipment meets the criteria for this classification.
