Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for lead scrap from other sources like cable sheathing
General lead waste not specifically from lead-acid storage batteries uses this catch-all subheading.
If processed into lead oxides only
Pure lead oxides extracted from battery paste are classified as inorganic chemicals, not metal scrap.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Use ISRI scrap specifications (e.g
• 'Harmony' grade for battery scrap) for standardized descriptions
• File prior notice via ACE system for hazardous material imports to avoid delays
• Avoid mixing with non-battery lead scrap to prevent reclassification under broader headings
