HTS tariff line · chapter 72
7222.40.30
Hot-rolled, not drilled, not punched and not otherwise advanced
Analysis
HTS 7222.40.30 covers hot-rolled, not drilled, not punched and not otherwise advanced under heading 7222 (other bars and rods of stainless steel; angles, shapes and sections of stainless steel). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 4 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.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 331110 (Iron and Steel Mills and Ferroalloy Manufacturing), an industry of 359 US establishments employing 78,532 people, the industry a domestic producer of these goods reports under.
The ten-digit suffixes separate angles and angles. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 10% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 10% duty.
