Last updated: August 2026 dataSemimanufactured rhodium — including wire, strip, sheet, and similar worked forms — is one of the rarest and most price-volatile platinum-group metals, prized primarily as a catalytic component in automotive three-way catalysts and specialty chemical processes. The entire heading consolidates into a single 10-digit line (7110390000), simplifying classification but placing significant weight on correctly distinguishing semimanufactured forms from unwrought rhodium or rhodium-containing alloys. Singapore and Belgium are the leading US suppliers, reflecting the role of major precious-metals refining and trading hubs in the global rhodium supply chain. Importers should be prepared for sharp spot-price swings that can materially affect customs valuation at time of entry.

Unwrought rhodium covers ingots, sponge, powder, and similar primary forms, while semimanufactured forms have been further worked — typically into wire, rod, sheet, strip, or tube — but have not yet been made into finished articles. The distinction turns on the degree of processing: if the metal retains a semi-finished industrial form rather than a finished product shape, it falls under the semimanufactured heading.
Both countries host major precious-metals refining, trading, and fabrication operations. Rhodium is often refined or further processed in these financial and industrial hubs before being exported in semimanufactured form, so the country of export for customs purposes reflects the location of the last substantial transformation rather than the origin of the ore.
