HS code 722020 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Flatrolled products of stainless steel, of a width of less than 600 mm : Not further worked than coldrolled (coldreduced)". The first two digits (72) are the chapter — Iron and steel — and digits 3-4 (7220) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 722020?
Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.
Is HS code 722020 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (722020) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.
Can I trust the HS code a 1688 supplier gives me?
Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
Is HSN code 722020 the same as HS code 722020?
Yes at the 6-digit level. India's HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) uses the same WCO base, so HSN 722020 covers the same "not further worked than coldrolled (coldreduced)" scope; India then extends it to 8 digits for GST and customs. Check the Indian Customs tariff (CBIC) for the full national line.
