Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If in the form of shot, grains, or flakes
Specific shapes like flakes have dedicated subheadings separate from generic pellets.
If alloyed with iron exceeding certain percentages
Ferro-cobalt alloys are classified under Chapter 72 iron/steel headings.
If processed into waste or scrap form
Secondary cobalt materials shift to articles/waste provisions.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide assay reports proving cobalt content exceeds 99% to avoid alloy classification
• Declare exact form (pellets vs. shot) on commercial invoice to match 'other' subheading
• Check for anti-dumping duties if sourced from specific countries like China
