Import Tips
• Verify volatile matter content via lab testing to confirm anthracite classification per subheading note (≤14% dry, mineral-matter-free)
• Provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting calorific value and ash content to avoid misclassification as bituminous coal
• Ensure bulk shipping documentation specifies non-agglomerated state to prevent reclassification under agglomerated coal headings
