Overview
This HTS classification, 7219.35.00.30, specifically covers flat-rolled products of stainless steel that are not further worked than cold-rolled (cold-reduced), have a thickness of less than 0.5 mm, and are presented in coils. Crucially, these stainless steel products must contain less than 15 percent by weight of chromium. The "Other" designation indicates that this category encompasses stainless steel coils meeting these precise dimensional and chemical specifications that do not fall under any more specific sub-classifications within this particular heading.
When classifying within this sub-heading, it is important to differentiate from sibling categories. While other categories at this level might cover stainless steel coils of similar dimensions but with different chromium content, or perhaps products not in coils, or those that have undergone further working beyond cold-rolling, this specific code targets a very precise combination of attributes. The key differentiator remains the chromium content being below the 15 percent threshold, placing these particular stainless steel products in this distinct category.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification under 7219.35.00.30 relies solely on meeting all the preceding criteria: being a flat-rolled product of stainless steel, of a width of 600 mm or more, not further worked than cold-rolled, of a thickness less than 0.5 mm, presented in coils, and containing less than 15 percent by weight of chromium. Accurate documentation of the chemical composition, particularly the chromium content, is essential for correct classification.
