Heading 7225 — Alloy steel flat-rolled products, of a width 600mm or more
Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 722550 when importing or exporting cold-rolled alloy steel flat-rolled products that are 600mm or wider. For example, a shipment of cold-rolled steel sheets used in automotive manufacturing would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers flat-rolled products made from alloy steel, which are distinct from non-alloy steel products classified under HS-6 722540. If your product is not cold-rolled or is narrower than 600mm, you will need to look at different classifications.
Alloy steel flat-rolled products are typically utilized in construction, automotive, and machinery applications, where strength and durability are essential. These products are often processed further into components or structures.
When considering HS-6 722550, ensure that your product meets the specifications for cold-rolled alloy steel and the width requirement. Misclassification can lead to delays or additional tariffs.

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 722550?
- HS-6 722550 covers cold-rolled flat-rolled alloy steel products that are 600mm or wider, including sheets, strips, and coils used in various industries.
- How can I tell if my steel product is cold-rolled?
- Cold-rolled steel typically has a smooth finish and tighter tolerances compared to hot-rolled steel. It is also usually used for applications requiring precise dimensions.
- What should I do if my product is not exactly 600mm wide?
- If your product is narrower than 600mm, you will need to classify it under a different HS code, such as **HS-6 722540** for cold-rolled alloy steel under that width.
- Are there specific tariffs for importing alloy steel flat-rolled products?
- Yes, tariffs may apply to alloy steel flat-rolled products, and they can vary by country. Check with your customs broker for the latest tariff rates.
- What documentation do I need for importing HS-6 722550 products?
- You will typically need a commercial invoice, packing list, and possibly a certificate of origin or compliance, depending on the importing country’s regulations.
- Can I use HS-6 722550 for products made from non-alloy steel?
- No, HS-6 722550 is specifically for alloy steel products. Non-alloy steel products have a different classification and should be classified under their respective codes.
- What industries commonly use cold-rolled alloy steel?
- Cold-rolled alloy steel is commonly used in the automotive, construction, and machinery industries due to its strength and durability.
- How can I avoid misclassification of my steel products?
- Ensure you understand the specifications of your product, including its composition and processing method. Consulting with a customs broker can also help avoid misclassification.
