Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If contaminated with thorium or other impurities exceeding purity thresholds
Impure rare-earth oxides may classify as chlorides or other metal oxides under 2827 if not meeting 'chemically defined' criteria.
If supplied as doped reaction mass for catalytic converter production
Processed rare-earth compounds in reaction mixtures for specific end-use fall under spent catalysts or reaction masses in 3815.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity certificate and chemical analysis to confirm classification as chemically defined rare-earth compound per Chapter 28/29 notes
• Include Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and REACH compliance docs for EU-origin materials to avoid customs delays
• Avoid misclassification as a finished magnet (8505.11); ship as pure oxide powder only
