Heading 7216 — Iron or non-alloy steel, angles, shapes and sections
Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 721632 when importing or exporting hot-rolled I sections made of iron or non-alloy steel with a height of 80mm or more. For instance, if you're shipping structural beams for construction, this is the code to apply.
This code specifically covers I-shaped steel sections that are hot-rolled, hot-drawn, or extruded. If you're dealing with similar products but with a height under 80mm, you would use HS-6 721631 instead, which applies to those smaller sections.
When classifying your products, remember that 721632 is distinct from 721640, which covers other types of non-alloy steel sections. Ensure your products meet the height requirement to avoid misclassification.
If you're unsure about the specifications of your steel sections, check the dimensions and manufacturing processes. This will help confirm whether 721632 is the right code for your shipment.
