Overview
This HTS subcategory, 7212.30.30.00, encompasses flat-rolled products of iron or nonalloy steel that are less than 600 mm in width and have been plated or coated with zinc, specifically excluding those with a thickness exceeding 0.25 mm. These products are characterized by their narrow width and zinc coating, which provides corrosion resistance. The classification under "Other" signifies that it represents a specific subset within the broader category of zinc-plated or coated flat-rolled steel.
The distinction between this subcategory and its sibling, 7212.30.10, lies precisely in the material's thickness. While 7212.30.10 covers zinc-plated or coated flat-rolled steel with a thickness of 0.25 mm or more, 7212.30.30.00 is reserved for products where this thickness threshold is *not* met. Therefore, the critical determinant for classifying goods into this specific code is their zinc coating and a width under 300 mm, coupled with a thickness of less than 0.25 mm.
As a leaf node, 7212.30.30.00 does not have further subcategories. This means that any product meeting the criteria of being a flat-rolled product of iron or nonalloy steel, less than 600 mm in width, otherwise plated or coated with zinc, of a width less than 300 mm, and with a thickness not exceeding 0.25 mm, will be classified directly under this code. Examples might include specific types of galvanized steel strips or sheets used in various manufacturing applications where thinner gauges are required.
