Import Tips
• Provide end-use statement if importing for battery production to facilitate customs clearance
• Avoid common error of shipping in containers mimicking wrought forms, which could trigger 7804 reclassification
• Label with exact purity (e.g
• 99.97%) and HS code on packaging for quick inspection
