Import Tips
• Submit lab assays confirming zinc predominance (>50% by weight) to distinguish from iron-zinc alloys under Chapter 72
• Comply with Basel Convention if transboundary hazardous waste movement is involved due to potential heavy metal leachates
• Declare exact source (e.g
• galvanizing plant) to prevent misclassification as primary zinc oxide under 2817
