This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If silicon content is 55% or less but over 30%
Ferrosilicon with lower silicon levels (โค55%) shifts to specific ferrosilicon subheading under 7202.21, distinguishing it from higher-grade 'other' variants.
If chemically defined or processed into a mixture for specific industrial use
Processed ferroalloys treated as chemical preparations rather than primary ferroalloys move to Chapter 38 for prepared binders or additives.
