Import Tips
• Include metallurgical certificates showing rhodium predominance over other PGMs like iridium or palladium
• Avoid 'semimanufactured' descriptors in docs; classify as unwrought sponge to stay in 7110.39
• Check for powder content; if >90% <0.5mm, it may shift to powder subheading 7110.31
