Last updated: April 2026 dataIron and steel barbed wire, twisted hoop wire, single flat wire, and loosely twisted double wire used for fencing are agricultural and security perimeter products with a long history of antidumping and countervailing duty scrutiny from multiple origins. Section 232 tariffs on steel also apply, layering trade-remedy exposure that importers must carefully evaluate by origin. The heading encompasses both traditional barbed wire and the flat or hoop wire variants used in agricultural fencing, so product form and construction details should be clearly documented on commercial invoices.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. Steel barbed wire has been subject to antidumping duty orders covering imports from several countries. Importers must verify the current scope of any active orders through the USITC and CBP's ADD/CVD database, as scope rulings can turn on specific wire gauge, coating, and construction characteristics.
Commercial invoices and packing lists should specify the wire type (barbed, twisted hoop, single flat, or loosely twisted double wire), the intended use (fencing), the base metal (iron or steel), and any surface treatment such as galvanizing. These details help CBP confirm classification within this heading and distinguish the goods from other wire products classified elsewhere.
