HS Code 7115Articles of precious metal or of metal clad with precious metal
2 six-digit codes · Heading 15 of 18 in Chapter 71 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
This page shows how to pick the right subheading and which goods belong elsewhere.
Heading 7115 splits exactly two ways. Goods answering to “Articles of precious metal or of metal clad with precious metal” classify either at 711510 or at 711590, and the wording in the table below is the whole of what separates them. The heading is number 15 of 18 in Chapter 71, Natural, cultured pearls; precious, semi-precious stones; precious metals, metals clad with precious metal, and articles thereof; imitation jewellery; coin, which runs to 55 six-digit codes in all.
What HS code 7115 covers
Heading 7115 sits in Section XIV, inside Chapter 71. Cladding means a layer of precious metal bonded onto another metal.
Raw and semi-finished metal is not here. Unwrought or semi-manufactured platinum goes under HS 7110. Heading 7115 is for goods that have already been shaped into an article and that no other heading names more closely.
You may see this heading written as HSN code 7115 in India or as HTS code 7115 in the United States. The first four digits match. Each country adds its own longer national codes after them, and its own duty rates, so check the national tariff before you file.
Difference between 711510 and 711590
The heading splits in two. Code 711510 is narrow. Code 711590 is the catch-all. It takes precious metal articles, or articles of metal clad with precious metal, that are not the platinum catalysts of 711510.
If you are asking which hs code fits platinum catalyst wire gauze, the wording of 711510 is the closest match. Always compare your product with the exact words of the code before you decide.
- Is the item a catalyst in wire cloth or grill form, made of platinum? Use 711510.
- Is it any other article of precious metal or of clad metal? Use 711590.
- Is it a gold or silver article that is not jewellery or goldsmiths' ware? It usually ends up in 711590.
- Not sure? Run the product description through the HS code classifier.
What does HS code 7115 not include?
Many precious metal goods are named more closely by a neighbouring heading. The more specific heading wins, so check these first.
Goldsmiths' and silversmiths' wares, such as table items, go under HS 7114. Waste and scrap of precious metal, including scrap bought to recover the metal, goes under HS 7112.
Articles of pearls and stones belong to HS 7116. Imitation jewellery is in HS 7117. Neither one is an article of precious metal in the sense of 7115.
A simple test helps. If the item is jewellery, tableware, scrap or a stone article, look at those headings first. If it is none of these and is made of precious or clad metal, 7115 is likely the home.
