Lamellar copper powders are classified as flakes under a different tariff item.
Not sure which classification is right?
The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Keep records of the particle size distribution and morphology to support the non-lamellar classification
• Verify that the powder is not alloyed with other metals in amounts that would change its tariff classification
• Consider whether the powder is for industrial use, which may affect duty rates
