7302.10.10
Of iron or nonalloy steel
This code covers railway and tramway track construction materials made of iron or nonalloy steel, specifically rails, and related parts. Use this code when importing or classifying these materials, noting the general free duty treatment, or to understand its placement within the broader iron and steel chapter of the tariff schedule.
Detailed information for HTS Code 7302.10.10
This tariff code falls within Chapter 73, which covers articles of iron or steel, and specifically addresses railway or tramway track construction materials. Code 7302.10.10 covers rails, check-rails, and rack rails made of iron or nonalloy steel, distinguishing between new and used materials. Numerous subdivisions further classify these rails based on whether they are heat treated, their weight (over 30 kg per meter), or specific use cases like rerolling, allowing for precise categorization of imported railway components. If reporting statistically, choose the appropriate suffix based on these qualifiers—new versus used, heat treatment, and weight—to ensure accurate data collection.

Eligible FTA or preference programs
The general duty rate for HTS code 7302.10.10 and all its subdivisions is Free, meaning no general duty applies to iron or nonalloy steel railway/tramway construction materials. A standard trade partner (NTR) rate also applies as the general rate. Special rates are not specified, but eligibility for FTA or preference programs could provide further duty reductions. All reported quantities must be in kilograms (kg). This applies uniformly to all subdivisions (7302.10.10.10 through 7302.10.10.75), regardless of whether the rails are new or used, heat-treated, or their weight category, as the duty structure remains consistent across the board.
