Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "55" represent steel.

Specifically, Chapter 55 covers the following steel products:

• Semi-finished products made of iron and steel: such as plates, strips, bars, and profiles.
• Flat-rolled products: including hot-rolled, cold-rolled, galvanized, and various flat-shaped steel products.
• Other shapes of steel: such as steel pipes, steel angles, and steel bars.

Therefore, if your product is made of steel and is a semi-finished product or various shaped steel products, its HS code is likely to start with "55".

To determine the classification more accurately, you also need to consider the specific material, shape, use, and processing level of the product.
