The first two digits of the HS code "55" represent steel.
Specifically, Chapter 55 covers the following steel products:
- Semi-finished products of iron and steel: such as sheets, strips, tubes, and profiles.
- Flat-rolled steel products: including hot-rolled, cold-rolled, coated, or plated flat-rolled steel products.
- Other steel products: such as steel wire, steel rods, steel profiles, and steel rails.
Therefore, if the main component of the product is steel, and it is a semi-finished product or a steel product that has been processed to some extent, its HS code is likely to start with "55".
To determine the classification more accurately, it is also necessary to check the specific material, shape, use, and degree of processing of the product.
