How to choose the right subheading
- Confirm the product is worked mica or an article of mica, not unworked mica or mica waste.
- Decide if it is agglomerated or reconstituted mica in the form of plates, sheets or strips.
- If it is another mica article, such as a washer, disc or gasket, use the other line.
- Check for combinations with asbestos, friction material or other mineral substances that move the goods to a different heading.
- A paper or paperboard support does not move agglomerated or reconstituted mica plates, sheets or strips out of the first line.
