Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates verifying nickel content (typically 25-35%) to confirm classification as ferronickel
• Ensure documentation includes smelting process details distinguishing from pure nickel or other ferroalloys
• Avoid misclassification as nickel oxide sinters (HTS 7501.10); ferronickel must be metallic alloy form
