HS Code 8112Beryllium, chromium, hafnium, rhenium, thallium, cadmium, germanium, vanadium, gallium, indium and niobium (columbium), articles of these metals, including waste and scrap

What HS code 8112 covers

Heading 8112 groups specialty metals that have no heading of their own. It sits among the Chapter 81 base metals.

The heading covers each metal and the goods made from it. It also covers waste and scrap. Some traders write it as HSN code 8112. It points to the same heading.

At the six-digit level, each metal is split by form. That split is what you need to get right when you file or search.

HS 8112 six-digit codes by metal

Here the codes are grouped by metal, so you can go straight to yours. Most metals follow one pattern: raw metal and powders, then scrap, then wrought articles.

• Cadmium: 811261 for waste and scrap, 811269 for everything else.

Choosing the right 8112 code: unwrought, scrap or wrought

Start with the metal. Then ask what form the goods are in. Is it raw metal or powder? Is it scrap? Or is it a worked piece?

For hafnium and rhenium, scrap shares a code with raw metal and powders, which are 811231 and 811241. The five-metal group of gallium, germanium, indium, niobium (columbium) and vanadium does the same in 811292. Check all seven if you trade scrap.

Also check that the metal belongs here at all. Cobalt is in 8105 and titanium in 8108. Cermets are in 8113. None of these sit under 8112.

If the goods are mixed or the wording is unclear, run the description through the HS code classifier before you commit to a code.

Who imports beryllium under HS 8112?

Trade in specialty metals is narrow. A company that buys beryllium powder under 811212 is rarely the same one that buys vanadium articles under 811299. So choose your six-digit code first.
