China and Austria are the leading suppliers, with Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea also significant, reflecting Asia's role in precision machining of refractory metals for electronics and industrial applications.

AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The NESOI (not elsewhere specified or included) designation means 8102990000 applies only when no more specific provision covers the article. Molybdenum parts identifiable as components of a particular machine or apparatus are generally classified with that machine under the relevant chapter (e.g., Chapter 84 or 85) by application of GRI 1 and the relevant section or chapter notes. Classification should be confirmed with a licensed customs broker when the article has a dedicated end-use identity.
Yes. Wrought molybdenum articles of Chinese origin classified under 8102990000 are subject to Section 301 tariffs. Given that China is the leading supplier under this heading, importers sourcing precision-machined molybdenum components from Chinese manufacturers should factor Section 301 costs into landed-cost calculations and evaluate whether alternative suppliers in Austria, Taiwan, or Japan can meet technical specifications.
