Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If unincinerated electronic scrap
Whole or dismantled electrical waste stays in Chapter 85, not as ash residues.
If refined precious metal scrap
Processed gold-bearing scrap from jewelry/electronics moves to Chapter 71.
If lacking gold but with other recoverable metals
Residues without gold specification fall into broader 'other materials' subheadings.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Document incineration source as non-municipal e-waste to distinguish from heading 2621 ash
• Ensure residues are not treated for recovery if copper/lead/zinc >2%, maintaining 2620.99.7580 eligibility
• Include safety data sheets for arsenic content to meet import hazard regulations
