Alternative Classifications

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

7214.91.00Same rate: 35%

If hot-rolled rather than cold-formed

Hot-rolled bars with similar carbon content fall under heading 7214 before cold-working.

7228.30Lower: 10% vs 35%

If alloy steel exceeding Chapter 72 note limits

Alloy steels are classified in Chapter 72 headings 7224-7229, not nonalloy 7213-7216.

7215.90.50Same rate: 35%

If carbon content under 0.25%

Lower carbon nonalloy steel cold-formed bars use different chemical composition subheading.

Our AI classifier can analyze your specific product and recommend the correct HTS code with confidence.

Import Tips & Compliance

Provide mill test certificates confirming carbon content between 0.25-0.6% and nonalloy composition to avoid reclassification

Measure and document exact diameter to confirm under 76 mm; exceeding triggers different subheading

Ensure no additional surface treatments beyond cold-finishing, as 'further worked' per Chapter 72 notes changes classification
