Analysis
HTS 7221.00.00 covers bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils, of stainless steel under heading 7221 (bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils, of stainless steel). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 6 ten-digit suffixes, reported in kilograms.
There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 92% of the 262 tariff lines in chapter 72 that are also free. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.
It is the only US line under subheading 7221.00, so the six-digit code used by every Harmonized System country and the eight-digit US line describe the same goods; a foreign tariff or an exporter's invoice showing 7221.00 points straight here.
The ten-digit suffixes separate of high-nickel alloy steel, containing less than 8 percent by…, containing 8 percent or more but less…, with a diameter of 14 mm or more but… and with a diameter of 19 mm or more. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.
