Import Tips

• Verify alloy composition via certified assay reports to confirm vanadium content under 99% and classify correctly under Chapter 81 alloys

• Obtain end-use certificates if importing for steel production to qualify for potential duty exemptions or preferential treatments

• Avoid misclassification as vanadium ores (2617.90) by ensuring product is refined unwrought metal, not raw mineral
