Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If inorganic pigments of lead
Finished pigments classified in Chapter 32 paints, not production residues.
If chemical prep residues
Prepared chemical additives/waste in 3824 if not slag-like.
If from non-metal extraction incineration
Other ash types go to 2621 if not meeting 2620 industrial criteria.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Label as hazardous; TSCA compliance for lead pigments in US
• Provide manufacturing process flow to confirm 2620 eligibility
• Test for 'mainly lead' threshold to avoid other 2620 subs
