Customs code · HS subheading 7306 40

Final code reached

Welded circular stainless-steel pipes, not cold-drawn or cold-rolled

This is a complete 8-digit customs code. Exports and Intrastat use it as it is. For an import into the EU the declaration uses 7306 40 80 00: this code with 00 added.

This code covers welded stainless-steel pipes with a circular cross-section. It excludes cold-drawn or cold-rolled pipes, pipes with circular inside and outside cross-sections and an outside diameter over 406.4 mm, and pipes of the kind used for oil and gas pipelines or for oil and gas extraction.

For example

  • A welded circular stainless-steel pipe that is not cold-drawn or cold-rolled, is not of the kind used for oil and gas pipelines or extraction, and does not have circular inside and outside cross-sections with an outside diameter over 406.4 mm.
  • A welded stainless-steel tube with a circular cross-section, not cold-drawn or cold-rolled, and not of the kind used for oil and gas pipelines or oil and gas extraction.
See the official tariff text

The code can be right while what you pay still changes, because of where the goods come from, when they arrive, or extra EU measures.

Classify your own product, free Look up the current rates and rules
  1. The product and its form Check that your product really matches this description, including what it is made of and the form it arrives in.
  2. Country of origin Trade agreements, sanctions and extra measures can change the treatment of the very same code.
