Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If predominantly iron-based stainless steel scrap
Ferrous waste/scrap with minor vanadium classifies under Chapter 72, not as primary vanadium scrap.
If in wrought form like turnings or sheets
Wrought vanadium articles or scrap use 8112.99.00, while unwrought scrap stays in 8112.92.70.00.
If granular tailings from ore processing
Vanadium-bearing tailings from mining are mineral granulates under Chapter 26, not refined scrap.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include recycling origin documentation and vanadium content assays to qualify for scrap tariff treatment
• Check for hazardous waste classifications under Basel Convention if contaminated with oils or chemicals
• Segregate from ferrous scrap (7204) by providing metal composition analysis
