Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7213.91.30Same rate: 35%

If containing indentations, ribs, or grooves from rolling for concrete reinforcement

Qualifies as concrete reinforcing bars/rods per U.S. Note (c), moving to twisted deformed bars heading.

7214.99.00Same rate: 35%

If carbon content under 0.6% by weight

Lower carbon nonalloy steel bars fall into the preceding subheading within the same 'other' category.

7228.30.80Same rate: 35%

If alloy steel rather than nonalloy (e.g., added chromium or molybdenum exceeding nonalloy limits)

Alloy steels transfer to Chapter 72 alloy headings like 7228 for similar hot-rolled bars.

Import Tips & Compliance

Certify exact carbon content via mill test report (MTR) as ≥0.6% to qualify; levels below shift to 7214.99.0060

Confirm 'not further worked' status—no polishing, coating, or chemical treatments allowed per Chapter 72 notes

Declare as nonalloy steel (no intentional alloying elements exceeding limits); rust/discoloration doesn't reduce duties
