Flat-rolled nonalloy steel coil, cold-rolled to a thickness of 1.5 mm and width over 600 mm, used for manufacturing car body panels. It falls under HTS 7209.16.00.91 as cold-rolled, not further worked, in coils, thickness between 1-3 mm, and not meeting high-strength steel criteria. This classification applies to standard nonalloy steel products without alloying elements exceeding defined thresholds.

Import Tips

Verify exact thickness (1-3 mm) and width (>600 mm) measurements with certified calipers to confirm HTS 7209.16.00.91 classification

Provide mill test certificates confirming nonalloy composition (carbon steel without specified alloy elements) to avoid reclassification as alloy steel

Check for any 'further worked' surface treatments like polishing; if present, it shifts to 7211, increasing duties
