Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for ores with higher 46%+ Cr2O3 content
Chromium ores are segmented by Cr2O3 percentage thresholds within heading 2610.
If chemically processed into pure chromium compounds
Pure chromium oxides (CrO3) or other chemicals are under inorganic chemicals chapter 28.
If containing arsenic and used for metal extraction
Chapter note to 2620 includes arsenic-bearing residues for extraction, separate from raw ores.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right HTS code — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide geological survey reports alongside customs entry to substantiate ore classification
• Budget for sampling and analysis at port of entry, as discrepancies in Cr2O3 can trigger penalties
• Avoid common pitfall of bulk bagging without proper labeling of hazardous dust potential
