From MFG Calcs data: Stainless steel mill products

U.S. imports of stainless steel mill products (headings 7219, 7220, 7221, 7222, 7223) came to $2.07B in 2025, with $538M in calculated duty: an effective duty of 26.0%, every duty included.

Effective duty in Sep 2026: 43.8%, against 39.2% in Sep 2025.

Largest sources in 2025: Taiwan $354M at 30.8% effective duty; Italy $236M at 20.3% effective duty; India $222M at 28.6% effective duty; Sweden $120M at 29.0% effective duty; Germany $119M at 22.4% effective duty.

These are family totals from U.S. import statistics published through USITC DataWeb, not this heading's rate alone; effective duty is calculated duty as a share of customs value, an estimate, not a ruling.

About these rates

The rates are those printed in the 2026 HTS Revision 23, published by the U.S. International Trade Commission. A 10-digit statistical line takes the rates printed on the 8-digit line above it. Chapter 99 duties (Section 232, Section 301, IEEPA) depend on the product, the origin and the date, are charged on top, and are not included. A code here is a strong lead, not a ruling: confirm it with a customs broker or a CBP binding ruling.
