Heading 7326Iron or steel; articles, n.e.c. in chapter 73

Chapter 73: Articles of iron or steel

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 732619 when importing or exporting forged or stamped iron or steel articles that are not further worked, such as brackets or fittings. This code specifically covers items that have been shaped but not processed beyond that point.

This code is part of the broader heading 7326, which includes various iron or steel articles not classified elsewhere in chapter 73. For example, HS-6 732610 covers similar forged items that are further worked, like machined parts, making it essential to distinguish between the two.

The 732619 line narrows down to articles that are forged or stamped but remain in a raw state, meaning they haven't undergone additional processing like machining or coating. This includes products like uncoated steel brackets or stamped metal plates.

When classifying your products, consider that items like HS-6 732620 encompass other types of iron or steel articles, but those may be processed differently. Ensure you accurately assess the level of work done on your items to avoid misclassification.
