Import Tips & Compliance

Verify manganese purity exceeds 99% by weight to avoid classification as alloys under Chapter 81 notes

Provide mill test certificates confirming composition to prevent misclassification as waste/scrap

Ensure documentation distinguishes from unwrought manganese to stay in 'other' subheading
