Brass-Plated Steel Thumb Tacks from Germany
Brass-plated steel thumb tacks are steel tacks with a flat head plated in brass, giving a decorative finish. The brass plating is a coating, not a head of copper, so these tacks remain within tariff item 7317.00.00 as iron or steel tacks with heads of other material.

Import Tips
• Confirm the plating is brass, not copper, as copper heads are excluded from this tariff item
• Provide a detailed product description to the CBSA to avoid confusion with copper-headed articles
• Check if the brass plating affects the classification under other headings
