Unwrought Palladium Bar from China
A bar of pure palladium in unwrought form, cast directly from molten metal without further processing into sheets or wires. It falls under HTS 7110.29.00.00 as 'other' palladium in unwrought form, distinct from powder or specific semimanufactured shapes like bars over certain dimensions. Used primarily in investment and industrial alloy production.

Import Tips
• Verify purity via assay certificates (typically 99.95%+ for investment grade) to confirm classification as unwrought palladium
• Include CITES documentation if alloyed with platinum group metals exceeding note 5 thresholds; declare exact composition
• Avoid misclassification as scrap (7112) by ensuring no fabrication or wear; common pitfall is undervaluation for duty evasion
