Alternative Classifications

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

7223.00.10Same rate: 35%

If sold as wire rather than rod

Products drawn to wire dimensions/thickness classify under Chapter 72 heading 7223.

7221.00.00Same rate: 35%

If higher nickel 304 standard grade

Standard 8-10% nickel 304 shifts to the 7221.00.0030 low-Ni threshold subheading.

7213.99.00Same rate: 35%

If in straight lengths, not coils

Hot-rolled alloy steel bars not in coils use 7213.99 series.

Import Tips & Compliance

Batch-test for exact nickel % as 304L variants border the 8% threshold

Avoid uncoiling during transit—damaged coils risk reclassification as straight lengths

Include end-use statements if applying for exemptions, though not typical for this HTS
