Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the rod is hot-rolled instead of cold-formed
Hot-rolled bars and rods of other alloy steel are classified under a different tariff item.
If the rod is presented in coils
Wire of other alloy steel, including silico-manganese, falls under heading 7229.
Not sure which classification is right?
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 square cross-section meets the definition of 'other bars and rods' (not wire, which is in coils)
• Provide a certificate of analysis showing silico-manganese composition
• Check if the rod is for fasteners, which may trigger additional standards under Canadian regulations
