Unwrought Platinum Bar
A solid bar of pure platinum in unwrought form, meaning it has not been worked into a finished shape beyond basic casting or rolling. Classified under HTS 7110.11.00 as unwrought platinum, per Chapter 71 notes defining platinum to include pure platinum without the six platinum group metals predominating in alloys.

This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If alloyed with predominating PGM metals
Alloys where iridium, osmium, etc., predominate by weight over platinum classify as other PGM unwrought per subheading note.
If containing 2%+ gold but no platinum
Per Chapter note 5(b), gold-dominant precious metal alloys shift to unwrought silver/gold classification.
If in powder form passing 0.5mm sieve
Powder form (90%+ through 0.5mm sieve) for rhodium classifies separately under 7110.41 per subheading note.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity certificate showing 99.95%+ platinum content to confirm classification as unwrought platinum, excluding alloys
• Provide assay reports and origin documentation; common pitfall is misclassifying sponge or powder as unwrought bar
• Declare exact weight and form; ensure no secondary processing like hammering that shifts to semimanufactured
