Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If as thallous chloride
Thallium salts and halides are chemical compounds in Chapter 28, not metallic forms.
If production waste
Manufacturing scrap or clippings of thallium are covered in the waste/scrap subheading.
If in electrical contacts
Fabricated articles like thallium-based electrical contacts fall under Chapter 85 machinery/electrical.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include spectrographic analysis to prove purity; impurities could reclassify as alloys
• Use triple packaging for toxic solids; comply with IATA/49 CFR for air/ground shipment
• Register with chemical inventory systems like TSCA; thallium requires pre-manufacture notice in some cases
