HS code for Corrugated galvanized steel sheet: 7210.41
Iron or non-alloy steel, flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, corrugated, plated or coated with zinc (not electrolytically).
Classification of corrugated galvanized steel sheet under HS 7210.41
Corrugated galvanized steel sheets are classified under HS code 7210.41. This classification is found within Chapter 72, which covers iron and steel. Heading 7210 applies to flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel with a width of 600 mm or more, which have been clad, plated, or coated. To fall under 7210.41, the product must meet three specific criteria: it must be plated or coated with zinc (galvanized), it must be corrugated, and it must not be coated electrolytically. Corrugation is a process of forming the sheet into a series of parallel ridges and furrows to increase structural rigidity, often used in roofing and siding. The classification follows GRI 1, as the description for 7210.41 explicitly mentions \"corrugated\" and \"plated or coated with zinc.\" The width requirement of 600 mm or more is critical; narrower sheets are classified in heading 7212.

Codes often confused with 7210.41
Common mistake. The most common misclassification is HS code 7210.49, which is for galvanized steel sheets that are NOT corrugated. Another frequent error is using 7212.30, which applies to galvanized steel sheets with a width of less than 600 mm. Additionally, if the sheets have been further worked into specific building components (like finished gutters or specialized structural parts), they might be classified under 7308 as structures or parts of structures, rather than flat-rolled products.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. 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).
