Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If zinc-based die-casting alloys
If formulated for die-casting with >2.5% other metals, classifies as zinc alloy under 7901.20 per chapter note (b).
If shaped into bars or rods >0.2kg/m weight
Processed into wrought profiles (bars/rods) shifts from unwrought 7901 to wrought zinc articles in 7903.10.
If higher electrolytic purity β₯99.99%
Purer electrolytic zinc qualifies as 7901.11 slabs or 'other' high-purity forms.

Import Tips & Compliance
β’ Include chemical assay reports specifying <99.99% zinc to differentiate from 7901.11; CBP may sample for verification
β’ Label shipments clearly as 'unwrought' to prevent confusion with wrought forms in Chapter 79 headings 7903+
