Import Tips
• Provide production process documentation (e.g
• vacuum melting certs) to distinguish from wrought articles under 8105.90
• Label with exact cobalt percentage and alloying elements; pitfalls include misdeclaration as nickel-cobalt alloys under 8112
• Comply with REACH-like regulations for cobalt traceability in supply chain
