Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates confirming alloy composition (e.g
• manganese >1%) to verify classification as alloy pig iron
• Ensure pigs are in primary form without further working like polishing to stay under 7201; further processed enters later headings
• Declare exact chemical analysis at entry to avoid disputes over alloy vs non-alloy pig iron (7201.10)
