7204.41.00

Analysis

HTS 7204.41.00 covers turnings, shavings, chips, milling waste, sawdust, filings, trimmings and stampings, whether or not in bundles under heading 7204 (ferrous waste and scrap; remelting scrap ingots of iron or steel). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 4 ten-digit suffixes, reported in metric tons.

Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 92% of the 262 tariff lines in chapter 72. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.

The ten-digit suffixes separate no. 1 bundles, no. 2 bundles and borings, shovelings and turnings. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.

All 6 neighbouring lines carry the same duty-free rate, so a borderline choice between them changes the statistics reported, not the duty paid.

Every edition we compared, from Jan 2023 to Oct 2026 (Rev. 22), shows the same general rate of Free.
