Use HS-6 830629 when importing or exporting statuettes and other ornaments made of base metal, excluding those plated with precious metals. For example, a shipment of bronze figurines or aluminum decorative pieces would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers non-electric statuettes and ornaments made from base metals like brass, bronze, or aluminum. In contrast, HS-6 830630 covers similar items that are plated with precious metals, so ensure you choose the correct classification based on the material.
