Alternative Classifications

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

7228.60.10Same rate: 35%

If high-strength steel specs met

Qualifies as high-strength per note (a) if yield point exceeds thresholds, separate subheading.

7228.50Lower: 10% vs 35%

If angles, shapes or sections

If formed into L, U, or H profiles rather than simple bar, classifies under shapes/sections.

7228.70Lower: 10% vs 35%

If further worked like phosphatized

Chemical treatments like phosphatizing count as further worked per chapter notes.

Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Submit chemical analysis reports distinguishing from tool steel (chapter note e) to prevent duty reassessment

β€’ Specify cross-section dimensions; rectangular shapes over certain sizes may trigger shape/section headings

β€’ No duty allowance for rust per chapter note; inspect and declare condition accurately
