HS-6 · Subheading
721922
Steel, stainless; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, hot-rolled, (not in coils), of a thickness of 4.75mm or more but not exceeding 10mm
Heading 7219 — Stainless steel; flat-rolled products of width of 600mm or more
Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 721922 when importing or exporting hot-rolled stainless steel flat-rolled products that are at least 600mm wide and have a thickness between 4.75mm and 10mm. For example, a shipment of stainless steel sheets used in construction or manufacturing machinery fits this classification.
This HS-6 line specifically covers flat-rolled stainless steel products that are not in coils, which distinguishes it from HS-6 721911, which includes similar products that are in coils. If your product is in a coil form, you should refer to that code instead.
The focus here is on hot-rolled products, meaning they are processed at high temperatures to achieve desired shapes and properties. This is different from cold-rolled products, which are processed at room temperature and typically have different applications and characteristics.
When considering this classification, ensure that the thickness of your product is within the specified range. Products thicker than 10mm would fall under a different HS-6 line, such as HS-6 721923, which covers thicker stainless steel flat-rolled products.
