HS Code 8111Manganese; articles thereof, including waste and scrap

What HS code 8111 covers

Heading 8111 is where manganese lives in the Harmonized System. It takes in the metal itself and articles made of it. It also takes in manganese waste and scrap.

People search for it in different ways. You may see it written as the manganese HS code, the HSN code 8111 or the HTS code 8111. These labels point to the same heading. Countries use different names for their tariff systems, but the heading number stays the same.

HS code 811100 and national tariff lines

The manganese HS code at the most detailed world level is 811100. Customs offices use it as the base for tariff classification. Many countries add extra digits to build their own national tariff lines. Those longer codes begin with 811100.

Duty depends on the importing country. It is set by that country's own tariff line, not by the heading alone. Before you ship, check the local line for your destination. If you are unsure which heading fits your goods, try the HS code classifier.

Manganese waste and scrap under 8111

Manganese waste and scrap do not get a heading of their own. The wording of 8111 already includes them. So scrap manganese is classified in the same place as new manganese metal.

This helps when you search for trade records. You do not need to hunt for a separate scrap code. Search the one code and read the goods description on each record to see whether the shipment is metal, an article or scrap.

How 8111 differs from nearby Chapter 81 headings

Chapter 81 groups many metals that are used in smaller amounts. Each metal usually has its own heading, so the first step is to name the metal correctly. Manganese and magnesium sound alike, but they are two different metals with two different headings.

These are the headings most often mixed up with 8111:

• HS 8104 is magnesium. It is the heading people confuse with manganese most often.
• HS 8105 is cobalt, and it also covers mattes and other intermediate products of cobalt metallurgy.
• HS 8112 is a shared heading for beryllium, chromium, hafnium, rhenium, thallium, cadmium, germanium, vanadium, gallium, indium and niobium.
• HS 8113 is cermets, which are a different kind of material from pure metals.
