Alternative Classifications

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

7226.11.10Same rate: 35%

If width of 300mm or more but less than 600mm

Grain-oriented silicon electrical steel shifts to the specific 300mm+ subheading within the same width category.

7210.12Lower: 10% vs 35%

If not alloy steel (carbon steel equivalent)

Lacks required alloy elements like high silicon, classifying as plated or coated carbon steel flat products.

7226.99.01Same rate: 35%

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

Chapter note defines 'further worked' including metal/nonmetallic coatings, moving out of base alloy steel headings.

Import Tips & Compliance

Submit core loss test data and domain-refined processing certification to prove grain-oriented status

Avoid common error of declaring thickness incorrectly; must match exact specs to prevent duty reassessment

For retail-packaged samples, may require 7226.99 if considered further worked with nonmetallic coatings
