304 Hot-Rolled Stainless Decked Plate 3.6mm from Germany
Hot-rolled flat-rolled stainless steel plate, grade 304, measuring 3.6 mm in thickness, with a hot-rolled tread pattern on the surface. Although the pattern is not considered 'in relief' for classification purposes, the product remains within the tariff item for stainless steel flat products of a width exceeding 600 mm and a thickness of 3 mm or more but less than 4.75 mm, not further worked than hot-rolled.
Duty Rate — Germany → Canada
Import Tips
• Confirm that the tread pattern does not constitute further working beyond hot rolling, as patterns derived directly from rolling are still classified as flat-rolled products
• Declare the exact dimensions and grade of the stainless steel to the CBSA, as the thickness and width determine the tariff item
• Be aware that patterned stainless steel plates may be subject to additional scrutiny regarding their classification; consider obtaining a binding ruling if uncertain
