7207.19.00.90 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 7207.19.00.90, encompasses a broad range of semifinished products of iron or nonalloy steel that contain less than 0.25 percent of carbon by weight, and are not of circular cross-section. These products are typically formed by continuous casting, ingot casting, or other primary shaping processes, and are intended for further processing into finished steel articles. Examples include bars, rods, blooms, billets, and slabs that do not meet the specific criteria of other subheadings within this group.

The distinction of this "Other" category is its residual nature. It specifically excludes semifinished products of circular cross-section, which are classified under subheading 7207.19.00.30. Therefore, any semifinished iron or nonalloy steel product with less than 0.25 percent carbon that possesses a square, rectangular, hexagonal, or octagonal cross-section, or any other non-circular shape, would fall into this classification if it does not fit into more precisely defined categories.

As a leaf node, this category has no further subdivisions. The classification hinges on the absence of specific features (like circular cross-section) and the fulfillment of the general criteria for semifinished products of iron or nonalloy steel with low carbon content. Importers and exporters must carefully assess the physical form and carbon content of their goods to ensure accurate classification within this residual "Other" category.
