Overview
This HTS category, 7208.38.00.90, encompasses flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel that have been hot-rolled, are not clad, plated, or coated, and are supplied in coils with a width of 600 mm or more. Specifically, it covers materials with a thickness ranging from 3 mm to less than 4.75 mm. The defining characteristic of this classification is that the material, while meeting the dimensional and processing criteria of the parent category, does not fall into any more specific "other" subdivisions.
This category is distinct from its sibling, 7208.38.00.30, which covers similar hot-rolled flat-rolled products in coils but specifically those with untrimmed edges. The "Other" designation in 7208.38.00.90 implies that the edges of these coils have been trimmed or finished to a certain standard, or that they do not fit into any other specifically defined sub-classifications within the 7208.38.00 group.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 7208.38.00.90 rests on confirming that the product meets all the preceding criteria: it is hot-rolled, flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel, of a width of 600 mm or more, supplied in coils, and possesses a thickness between 3 mm and 4.75 mm, while also ensuring it does not qualify for any more narrowly defined classification within the broader 7208 heading, particularly by virtue of its edge finishing.
