Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits "72" represent steel.

Specifically, Chapter 72 includes the following steel products:

• Iron and steel, including alloy steel: For example, steel ingots, steel billets, steel plates, steel pipes, steel bars, steel wire, steel rails, angle steel, channel steel, flat steel, etc.
• Steel products of various shapes and sizes, whether unshaped, semi-finished, or finished.
• Alloy steel, which is steel containing other elements (such as manganese, chromium, nickel, etc.) to improve its properties.

Therefore, if your product is made of steel or mainly composed of steel, its HS code is likely to start with "72".

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

The first four digits "7202" indicate:

• Classification: Ferroalloys (iron alloys)
• Meaning: Iron alloys.

The six-digit classification:

Classification: Ferroalloys (iron alloys)

Specific meaning:

• Ferrosilicon (iron silicon alloy)
• Containing by weight more than 55 percent of silicon (containing more than 55% silicon by weight)
• Containing by weight more than 90 percent of silicon (containing more than 90% silicon by weight)

8-10 digit explanation:

HS code: 7202219000
Classification: Iron alloys --> Ferrosilicon --> Containing more than 55% silicon by weight --> Containing more than 90% silicon by weight
Explanation: This HS code belongs to iron alloys, specifically ferrosilicon, with a silicon content of more than 55% by weight, and also more than 90% silicon by weight.

Product examples: * Ferrosilicon with 95% silicon content * High-purity silicon-iron alloy * Silicon-iron alloy used in steelmaking * Silicon-iron alloy for electrical applications * Ferrosilicon with 92% silicon content
