Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the wire bars contain at least 99.85% copper by weight
Cathodes and sections of refined copper are classified under this more specific tariff item.
If the wire bars are of refined copper and meet the definition of wire-bars
Wire-bars of refined copper are a distinct unwrought form under the same subheading.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the wire bars are in unwrought form and not drawn or rolled
• Provide documentation showing they are for remelting or casting into wire rods
• Verify the copper purity to confirm classification as refined copper
