HS Code 7106.92 – Metals; silver, semi-manufactured
HS code 7106.92 is the 6-digit subheading for metals, silver, semi-manufactured. It is used for silver sheet, silver wire, silver rod, silver strip and silver tubing.
What HS 7106.92 covers
This HS code covers silver that has undergone an initial stage of processing beyond its unwrought form but is not yet a finished product. This includes forms like sheets, plates, strips, wire, rods, and tubes. These semi-manufactured forms are crucial intermediate goods for a wide range of industries, including jewelry making, electronics, coinage, and specialized industrial components. Countries with robust manufacturing sectors that utilize silver as a key material, particularly in high-end jewelry, electrical contacts, and medical devices, are significant importers. Exporters are typically nations with sophisticated metal fabrication industries or those that refine silver and then process it into these intermediate forms. Trade in semi-manufactured silver requires adherence to specific dimensions, purity levels, and metallurgical properties. This category represents a vital link in the supply chain, transforming raw silver into forms ready for final product manufacturing, highlighting the industrial versatility of the metal.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
