Alternative Classifications

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

7219.32.00Same rate: 35%

If certified as razor blade steel per US Note (d)

Specific thin stainless with Cr ≤14.7% certified for razor blades gets dedicated subheading despite general fit.

7219.22.00Same rate: 35%

If further worked (e.g., polished or coated)

Chapter note defines 'further worked' surface treatments like polishing that shift to heading 7219.22.

7219.90.00Same rate: 35%

If of rectangular cross-section but not flat-rolled

Non-flat profiles of stainless steel classify under 'other' bars/sections in 7219.90.

Import Tips & Compliance

Provide detailed chemical analysis from MTR confirming Cr <15% and martensitic structure to distinguish from austenitic grades

Document cold-rolling process only (no annealing/polishing) and measure uncoiled width to ensure >600 mm compliance

Watch for rust/discoloration allowances—none permitted under Chapter 72 notes, so inspect entries carefully
