S235JR Hot-Rolled Merchant Bar Coil from Japan
S235JR hot-rolled merchant bar coils are non-alloy steel products supplied in irregularly wound coils, conforming to EN S235JR specifications for general engineering applications. They are classified under tariff item 7213.99.00 as 'other' hot-rolled bars and rods of iron or non-alloy steel, not being tool or heat-resisting steels. Their standard carbon content and lack of alloying elements keep them within the non-alloy steel definition of Chapter 72.

Import Tips
• Ensure the product meets the EN S235JR specification and is free of alloying elements that would push it into another heading
• Provide a mill certificate or test report to the CBSA to confirm the steel's composition
• Verify the coils are irregularly wound and not in straight lengths to match the tariff item's scope
