Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If shaped into refractory bricks
Finished refractory products of chromite are under Chapter 69, not raw ore materials.
If lower chromium content under 40% Cr2O3
Chromite ores below 40% fall into residual subheadings of 2610.
If ash from municipal waste incineration
Chapter note excludes municipal waste residues from 2620, directing to 2621.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Specify particle size distribution in import docs to distinguish fines from lump ore
• Ensure Cr2O3 assay matches exactly to avoid duty adjustments to neighboring subheadings
• Comply with REACH if destined for EU, declaring trace elements beyond chromium
