HS Code 7219Stainless steel; flat-rolled products of width of 600mm or more

14 six-digit codes · Heading 19 of 29 in Chapter 72 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System

HS code 7219 covers flat-rolled stainless steel that is 600mm wide or more, such as wide coils and wide sheets. This page shows how its subheadings split by rolling method and thickness, and how to tell it apart from nearby headings.

Heading 7219 is finely cut: 14 six-digit codes, 721911 to 721990, all of them under “Stainless steel; flat-rolled products of width of 600mm or more”. At that depth it is the exact wording of the code, not of the heading, that settles a classification. The heading is number 19 of 29 in Chapter 72, Iron and steel, which runs to 167 six-digit codes in all.

What HS code 7219 covers

Heading 7219 is for stainless steel that has been rolled flat and is 600mm wide or more. Width is the first test. If the flat product is narrower than 600mm, it belongs somewhere else.

You may also see it called the HSN code 7219. The first six digits are shared across countries. A country may add more digits after them for its own tariff lines, so always check the national schedule too.

Tariff classification works in steps. You pick the heading first, then the six-digit subheading. Under 7219, the subheadings are split by three things: how the steel was rolled, whether it comes in coils, and how thick it is. The sections below follow that order. For the wider family of iron and steel goods, see the chapter page.

HS code for hot rolled stainless steel coils and flat pieces

Hot-rolled steel is rolled while it is very hot. Under 7219, two groups cover it. One group is for steel wound into coils. The other is for hot-rolled steel that is not in coils, such as cut lengths. Each group uses the same four thickness bands.

Hot-rolled stainless steel in coils:

  • 721911: thickness over 10mm
  • 721914: less than 3mm

HS code for cold rolled stainless steel 600mm or more

Cold-rolled steel, also called cold-reduced, is rolled again without heat. The cold-rolled group has five thickness bands, and it does not ask whether the steel is in coils:

Cold-rolled stainless steel, 600mm or wider:

  • 721933: over 1mm, but less than 3mm

How to choose the right code, and 7219 vs 7220

Use these steps to land on one code. First, check that the steel is stainless. Second, check the width is 600mm or more. Third, decide if it is hot-rolled or cold-rolled. Fourth, for hot-rolled steel, decide if it is in coils or not. Last, measure the thickness and match it to a band.

Code 721990 is the catch-all. It is for stainless flat-rolled steel of 600mm or more that does not fit any code above. Check every other code before you use it.

The neighbouring headings are easy to mix up:

  • 7220 is stainless flat-rolled steel with a width under 600mm. Width is the only split from 7219.
  • Stainless steel stays in 7219.
  • 7208 and 7209 are the non-alloy steel versions, hot-rolled and cold-rolled.
