HS-6 · Subheading
721399
Iron or non-alloy steel; bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils, n.e.c. in heading no. 7213, of circular cross-section measuring 14mm or more in diameter
Heading 7213 — Iron or non-alloy steel; bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils
Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 721399 when importing or exporting hot-rolled iron or non-alloy steel bars and rods that are coiled and have a circular cross-section of 14mm or more in diameter. For example, if you're shipping a coil of steel wire rods used in construction, this is the correct classification.
This code specifically applies to products that fall under the broader category of hot-rolled steel bars and rods. If your product is a hot-rolled steel bar but has a different shape or diameter, you may need to look at other subheadings, like HS-6 7213.10 for smaller diameters.
In contrast, HS-6 7213.90 covers other types of hot-rolled bars and rods that do not meet the specifications of HS-6 721399. If your steel product is not in irregular coils or is of a different cross-section, you will need to classify it differently.
When determining if HS-6 721399 applies, consider the physical characteristics of your product, such as its diameter and shape. Products that are not circular or are less than 14mm in diameter will not fit this classification.

Questions & answers
For orientation only—the binding text is your national tariff and the WCO nomenclature your country uses.
- What types of products are classified under HS-6 721399?
- HS-6 721399 covers hot-rolled iron or non-alloy steel bars and rods that are in irregularly wound coils and have a circular cross-section of 14mm or more in diameter.
- Can I use HS-6 721399 for steel rods that are not coiled?
- No, HS-6 721399 specifically applies to hot-rolled steel bars and rods that are in irregular coils. Non-coiled products would need a different classification.
- What if my steel rod is less than 14mm in diameter?
- If your steel rod has a diameter less than 14mm, it would not qualify for HS-6 721399. You should look for a different classification that fits the specifications of your product.
- How do I determine if my product fits HS-6 721399?
- Check the product's shape, diameter, and whether it is coiled. If it is a hot-rolled steel bar or rod in irregular coils and measures 14mm or more in diameter, it likely fits HS-6 721399.
- What are the implications of misclassifying my steel products?
- Misclassification can lead to incorrect duties, fines, or delays in customs clearance. It's crucial to accurately classify your products to avoid these issues.
- Are there any specific documents needed for HS-6 721399?
- You will typically need a commercial invoice, packing list, and potentially a certificate of origin, depending on the destination country's requirements.
- How does HS-6 721399 differ from HS-6 721390?
- HS-6 721390 covers other hot-rolled bars and rods that do not meet the specifications of HS-6 721399, such as different shapes or diameters.
