U.S. imports of antimony waste and scrap (HS 811020) totaled $12K in December 2025, traded with 3 countries.
Antimony Waste and Scrap imports of $12K in December 2025 ran 62% below the year-to-date monthly average of $32K.
Last updated: December 2025 dataRecovered antimony metal in scrap form — including dross, residues, and clippings from battery manufacturing, flame-retardant production, and alloy fabrication — is classified under the single 10-digit line 8110200000. China is the leading US supplier under this heading, followed by Mexico and Thailand. Given antimony's critical mineral status and the relatively small number of active smelters capable of processing antimony scrap, importers should pay close attention to material purity and contamination levels, as off-spec scrap may be reclassified as a waste or residue under a different chapter.

A chemical analysis or assay report confirming the antimony content and identifying major contaminants is the most important supporting document. Importers should also obtain a commercial invoice describing the origin and industrial source of the scrap (e.g., battery plates, alloy clippings). If the material is heavily contaminated or mixed with other metals, CBP may question whether it is properly classified as antimony scrap or should instead be declared as a mixed metal waste.
Antimony and its compounds are regulated as hazardous substances under US environmental law, and antimony-bearing scrap may be subject to EPA reporting thresholds under CERCLA or RCRA if it exhibits hazardous waste characteristics. Importers should confirm with their environmental compliance counsel whether the specific material triggers any EPA notification or manifest requirements, in addition to standard CBP entry procedures.
