Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

6804.21.00Same rate: 35%

If bound into grinding wheels or mounted on tools

Millstones, grindstones, and similar articles of agglomerated synthetic diamonds classify in Chapter 68, not as loose powder.

7105Same rate: 35%

If natural diamond powder

Natural diamond dust/powder falls under separate subheading 7105.21, differentiated by origin despite identical powder form.

2843.10.00.00Higher: 40.5% vs 35%

If chemically treated for semiconductor polishing

Precipitated or sintered synthetic diamonds prepared for specific industrial polishing may classify as inorganic compounds in Chapter 28.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify powder fineness via sieve test (90%+ through 0.5mm mesh) to confirm HTS 7105.10.0050 classification; coarser grit may shift to 6804.21

Provide lab certification proving synthetic origin and diamond composition to avoid misclassification as natural under 7105.21

Declare exact particle size distribution and end-use to prevent customs reclassification as finished abrasives
