About This Section
Section XV is one of the most trade-policy-intensive sections, covering iron and steel (Chapter 72), articles of iron or steel (Chapter 73), copper (Chapter 74), nickel (Chapter 75), aluminum (Chapter 76), and other base metals plus tools and cutlery (Chapters 77-83). Steel imports face Section 232 national security tariffs of 25% (with country-specific exemptions and quota arrangements), and aluminum faces 10% Section 232 tariffs. Anti-dumping and countervailing duties (ADD/CVD) are extensive — hundreds of orders cover steel and aluminum products from China, India, Korea, and other countries. CBP EAPA investigations target transshipment of steel and aluminum through third countries. Importers must carefully verify country of origin, mill test certificates, and Section 232/ADD/CVD liability.

Chapter Overview
Section XV — Base Metals and Articles of Base Metal covers Chapters 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. The HTS is organized into 21 sections and 97 chapters, with each chapter covering a distinct category of goods. Within this section, there are 570 six-digit subheadings, each potentially containing multiple 8-digit and 10-digit statistical suffixes that specify the exact duty rate applicable to your product.
Importers should pay particular attention to the Chapter Notes at the beginning of each chapter, as these notes define the scope of the chapter and may exclude certain products or provide special classification rules that override the General Rules of Interpretation (GRI).
