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 steel contains other alloying elements exceeding silico-manganese limits
Other alloy steel bars and rods in coils may apply for different alloy compositions.
If the steel is non-alloy
Non-alloy steel wire rod in coils may apply if the silico-manganese definition is not met.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm the product is in irregularly wound coils and not further worked than hot-rolled, as drawing into wire would change classification
• Provide a certificate of analysis to verify silico-manganese composition per subheading note 1(e)
• Ensure the rod is not classified as welding quality wire rod under statistical note 4, which may have different statistical reporting
