More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the carbon content is less than 0.25% by weight
Semi-finished products of iron or non-alloy steel with lower carbon content are classified under this alternative.
If the product is in ingot form rather than bloom, billet, or slab
Ingots of iron or non-alloy steel are classified under heading 72.06, not 72.07.
If the steel contains alloying elements exceeding the limits for non-alloy steel
Semi-finished products of alloy steel are classified in Chapter 72 under heading 72.24.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the carbon content is documented in the commercial invoice or mill certificate to support classification under 7207.20.00
• Verify the product is not further worked than primary hot-rolling or roughly shaped by forging, as additional processing may change classification
• Consult the CBSA's Advance Rulings service for binding tariff classification certainty before shipping
