Alternative Classifications

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

7228.30Lower: 10% vs 35%

If qualifies as tool steel per note (e)

Tool steels with specific alloy combinations like >1.2% carbon and >10.5% Cr move to Chapter 72 tool steel headings.

7226.99.01Same rate: 35%

If further worked like coated or polished

Any surface treatment (e.g., phosphatizing) per chapter note classifies as 'further worked' under 7226.99.

7213.91.30Same rate: 35%

If rectangular bars rather than flat-rolled

If processed into bars > thickness but rectangular cross-section, it falls under bars and rods in 7213.

Import Tips & Compliance

Confirm not 'tool steel' per note (e) via chemical analysis; misclassification to 7228 can occur without certification

Document hot-rolling process only; any polishing or coating makes it 'further worked' under Chapter 72 definition

Use precise calipers for thickness verification; entries over 4.75mm shift to different statistical suffix
