Import Tips
• Submit chemical analysis reports from accredited labs showing Fe-P composition to support HTS 7202 classification
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as scrap metal; ferrophosphorus is a purpose-made alloy, not waste
• Declare exact phosphorus percentage on entry as it affects steel industry end-use compliance
