Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If calibrated for testing machines
Test pieces designed for calibration classify as parts of testing instruments in Chapter 90.
If U.S. goods returned after testing abroad
Repatriated U.S.-origin test samples enter duty-free under Chapter 98 returns.
Not sure which classification is right?
The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right HTS code — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Attach mill test reports with lot numbers for full traceability
• Declare intended test use to potentially qualify for temporary import under bond
• Avoid generic 'metal samples' description to prevent Chapter 98 valuation issues
