Okay, let's break down these HS codes and associated tariffs for your "STAINLESS STEEL CLIP" declarations. I'll provide a structured analysis to help you understand the classifications and potential costs.
Important Note: Tariff rates are subject to change. The information below is based on the data you provided and current understanding as of today, but always verify with the latest official customs regulations before importing. The "2025.4.2" dates refer to potential tariff changes coming into effect.
General HS Code Structure Reminder:
- First 2 Digits (Chapter): Broadly categorize the goods.
- First 4 Digits (Heading): More specific classification.
- First 6 Digits (Subheading): Even more detailed.
- Full HS Code (8 Digits or more): Most specific classification for tariff purposes.
1. 7307.21.10.00 – Tube or pipe fittings (for example, couplings, elbows, sleeves), of iron or steel: Other, of stainless steel: Flanges: Not machined, not tooled and not otherwise processed after forging
- 73: Iron or steel articles.
- 07: Tube or pipe fittings.
- 21: Other (meaning not specifically covered elsewhere in the chapter), of stainless steel.
- 10: Flanges.
- Tax: Base 3.3%, Additional 25.0%, potentially increasing to 30% after 2025.4.2. Total: 83.3%
- Key Consideration: Ensure these are truly not machined or processed after forging. Any machining will likely change the HS code.
2. 7307.29.00.30 – Tube or pipe fittings (for example, couplings, elbows, sleeves), of iron or steel: Other, of stainless steel: Other Nipples
- 73: Iron or steel articles.
- 07: Tube or pipe fittings.
- 29: Other (meaning not specifically covered elsewhere in the chapter), of stainless steel.
- 00: Other Nipples.
- Tax: Base 5.0%, Additional 25.0%, potentially increasing to 30% after 2025.4.2. Total: 85.0%
- Key Consideration: Confirm these are accurately described as "nipples" and not another type of fitting.
3. 8547.90.00.10 – Insulating fittings for electrical machines, appliances or equipment, being fittings wholly of insulating material apart from any minor components of metal (for example, threaded sockets) incorporated during molding solely for the purposes of assembly, other than insulators of heading 8546; electrical conduit tubing and joints therefor, of base metal lined with insulating material: Other Other insulating fittings
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment.
- 47: Insulating fittings.
- 90: Other.
- Tax: Base 4.6%, Additional 25.0%, potentially increasing to 30% after 2025.4.2. Total: 84.6%
- Key Consideration: The description is very specific. Ensure the fittings are wholly of insulating material with only minor metal components for assembly.
4. 8546.90.00.00 – Electrical insulators of any material: Other
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment.
- 46: Electrical insulators.
- 90: Other.
- Tax: Base 0.0%, Additional 25.0%, potentially increasing to 30%. Total: 55.0%
- Key Consideration: This is a broad category. If the insulators have specific properties or applications, a more precise HS code might exist.
5. 9503.00.00.90 – Tricycles, scooters, pedal cars and similar wheeled toys; dollsʼ carriages; dolls, other toys; reduced-scale (“scaleˮ) models and similar recreational models, working or not; puzzles of all kinds; parts and accessories thereof Other

Recommendations:
- Material Verification: Double-check the exact material composition of each clip. Stainless steel grades can affect classification.
- Processing Level: Be precise about any machining, finishing, or other processing done to the clips.
- End Use: Confirm the intended end use of each clip.
- 2025.4.2 Changes: Be prepared for potential tariff increases in April 2025.
- Supplier Documentation: Request detailed specifications and HS code information from your supplier.
- Local Customs Broker: I highly recommend consulting with a local customs broker in your importing country. They can provide definitive guidance based on your specific situation and the latest regulations.
