Import Tips
• Submit assay reports detailing gallium content (>50% to qualify); low purity risks reclassification as general scrap
• Comply with EPA recycling declarations if from US-origin processes to avoid anti-dumping scrutiny
• Segregate from hazardous waste—gallium scrap often contains arsenic residues requiring special handling manifests
