HTS tariff line · chapter 72
7207.12.00
Containing by weight less than 0.25 percent of carbon: other, of rectangular (other than square) cross section
Analysis
HTS 7207.12.00 covers containing by weight less than 0.25 percent of carbon: other, of rectangular (other than square) cross section under heading 7207 (semifinished products of iron or nonalloy steel). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 2 ten-digit suffixes, reported in kilograms.
This line's footnotes point to one additional provision in Chapter 99: 9903.90.09 (measures on products of Russia). Chapter 99 duties are added on top of the general rate for goods of the countries they name, and they change more often than the rest of the schedule, so check the current CBP guidance before you rely on a total.
For statistics it divides in two: 7207.12.00.10 for having a width measuring less than four times the thickness and 7207.12.00.50 for having a width measuring at least four times the thickness. Both pay the same duty; the suffix records which kind was imported.
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.
