Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2606.00.00Same rate: 25%

If coarser metallurgical grade

Larger particle sizes for aluminum smelting are separated from fine refractory grades.

6903.20.00Higher: 37.5% vs 25%

If pre-formed into ceramic shapes

Shaped refractory goods from bauxite aggregate enter Chapter 69 as finished ceramics.

2620.99Lower: 12.5% vs 25%

If containing recoverable metals

Bauxite residues with metal content for extraction fall under Chapter 26 slag/residues.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Statistical reporting requires precise mesh size declaration per notes; mismatches trigger audits

• Label shipments clearly as 'refractory grade only' to prevent diversion to lower-duty uses

• Check for radioactive impurities common in bauxite—radiation certificates may be needed
