HS-6 · Subheading
721621
Iron or non-alloy steel; L sections, hot-rolled, hot-drawn or extruded, of a height of less than 80mm
Heading 7216 — Iron or non-alloy steel, angles, shapes and sections
Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 721621 when importing or exporting hot-rolled L sections made of iron or non-alloy steel that are less than 80mm in height. These sections are commonly used in construction and manufacturing, such as for structural supports or frames.
This code specifically applies to L-shaped sections, distinguishing them from other shapes like T-sections or I-beams, which fall under different HS codes. If your product is a hot-rolled angle with a height of 80mm or more, you would classify it differently under HS-6 721622.
The 721621 classification covers products that are not only hot-rolled but also hot-drawn or extruded. This means that if your L sections are shaped through these processes and meet the height requirement, they fit this code perfectly.
When shipping these L sections, ensure that your documentation clearly states their dimensions and the manufacturing process to avoid classification issues at customs.
