Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8002.00.00Lower: Free vs 25%

If fit only for remelting and containing >5% impurities or residues

Tin waste and scrap (including remelting stock with significant impurities) heads to 8002, excluding clean alloys.

7228.30.80Higher: 35% vs 25%

If alloyed primarily with chromium/nickel for tool steel applications

Certain alloy steel bars/pigs shift to Chapter 72 if other metals predominate over tin.

8007.00Lower: 12.8% vs 25%

If shaped into simple articles like caps, lids, or stoppers

Other articles of tin (e.g., cast shapes for specific end use) classify under heading 8007.
