7413Copper; stranded wire, cables, plaited bands and the like, not electrically insulated

Chapter 74: Copper and articles thereof

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 7413 when importing copper stranded wire, cables, or plaited bands that are not electrically insulated. For example, if you're shipping a roll of copper wire used in construction or crafting, this code applies.

When deciding between HS-6 741300 and other nearby codes, consider the insulation status. If your product is insulated, it falls under different classifications, such as those in HS-4 7412. Ensure your product specifications match the non-insulated criteria for proper classification.

If you're importing copper cables that are specifically designed for non-electrical applications, such as decorative uses or structural components, HS-4 7413 is the right choice. Misclassification can lead to delays or fines, so confirm the product's intended use.
