Frequently Asked Questions
What are the primary customs risks when importing steel pallets and racks under HTS 732690?
These goods are frequently targeted for customs inspections to verify the declared steel grade and the presence of anti-corrosion coatings (e.g., galvanization) to ensure correct classification and anti-dumping duty application. Improper documentation of the manufacturing process and material composition is a common cause of delays and potential penalties.
What additional costs beyond the basic duty rate should I anticipate when importing steel pallets and racks under HTS 732690?
Importers frequently incur anti-dumping and countervailing duties (AD/CVD) on certain steel products from specific countries, which can add substantial fees. You should also budget for the Merchandise Processing Fee (MPF), which is 0.3464% of the entered value (minimum $27.23, maximum $614.35) for formal entries of these goods.
Anti-Dumping and Countervailing Duty Considerations
Steel pallets and racks under HTS 7326.90 are subject to multiple U.S. anti-dumping (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) orders on steel products. The most relevant is the AD/CVD order on steel racks from China (case A-570-114 / C-570-115), with current AD cash deposit rates up to 145.68% and CVD rates up to 188.95%. Importers must file AD/CVD case numbers (e.g., A-570-114) and pay applicable duties unless an exclusion applies. Always verify the country of origin and check for product-specific scope rulings with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) or the Department of Commerce.
