7209.16.00.91/Cold-Rolled Nonalloy Steel Coil for Automotive Panels/Mexico

Cold-Rolled Nonalloy Steel Coil for Automotive Panels from Mexico

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
