HTS heading 7219 is a broad product category for flat-rolled stainless steel products that are at least 600 mm wide. “Flat-rolled” generally means steel supplied as sheets, plates, or coils made by rolling, rather than bars, wire, tubes, or other shapes. The heading covers several forms and processing levels, so the 4-digit heading alone is not the complete classification.
To reach the correct 8-digit HTS code, narrow the product by its technical characteristics. Important distinctions commonly include whether it was hot-rolled or cold-rolled, whether it has been further worked or finished, its thickness, and sometimes the applicable stainless-steel material grouping or grade. Use the product’s mill certificate, commercial specifications, and the current HTS descriptions to match every required detail. If the facts do not clearly fit one subheading, obtain customs-broker or classification-specialist advice.
What to check
- Confirm that the product is stainless steel, flat-rolled, and at least 600 mm wide; do not assume all steel sheet belongs in heading 7219.
- Identify the rolling and finishing process, including whether the product is hot-rolled, cold-rolled, coated, polished, or otherwise further worked.
- Measure and document the product’s thickness and width in the units used by the HTS and technical records.
- Check the material grade or composition against the subheading language, using the mill certificate rather than a marketing description alone.
- Compare the complete product facts with the current 8-digit HTS text and any applicable legal notes; request a binding classification decision or professional review when uncertainty remains.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
