Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If from pig iron/steel production
Ferrous manufacturing residues excluded from 2620, covered in Chapter 72.
If containing primarily lead compounds
Specific classification for lead-bearing slag/ash takes precedence.
If chemically treated for compound production
Processed residues as chemical preparations shift to Chapter 38.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Use statistical note assays for metal content reporting without deductions
• Segregate from steel slags to prevent 7204 classification
• Obtain prior TSCA certification for arsenic levels above thresholds
