Standard Ferronickel 25-30% Nickel from China
Standard ferronickel containing 25-30% nickel and balance iron is produced by smelting laterite nickel ores in electric arc furnaces. This alloy is the primary source of nickel for stainless steel production, providing a cost-effective way to introduce nickel into the melt. It is classified under tariff item 7202.60.00 as ferro-nickel, a type of ferro-alloy defined in Chapter 72.

Import Tips
• Confirm the product is in a primary form (e.g
• lumps, granules) and not further worked, as this affects classification
• Provide the nickel content and origin documentation to determine the applicable duty rate under the Most-Favoured-Nation (MFN) tariff or preferential rates
• Be prepared to pay GST/HST on the value for duty, which includes the cost, insurance, and freight (CIF) value
