Commodity code

7302 under the UK CBAM

In scope · iron and steel goods

Railway or tramway track construction material of iron or steel, the following: rails, check-rails and rack rails, switch blades, crossing frogs, point rods and other crossing pieces, sleepers (cross-ties), fish-plates, chairs, chair wedges, sole plates (base plates), rail clips, bedplates, ties and other material specialised for jointing or fixing rails

The crude steel behind the product carries most of the intensity, and a supplier that cannot name the mill that made its steel has left the largest part of the figure to the default value.

Basis
Schedule 16 to the Finance Act 2026, Table in paragraph 1
Sector
iron and steel goods
Aggregated goods category
Iron or steel products
Relevant gases
Carbon dioxide only
Precursors
Crude steel, pig iron, direct reduced iron, the four ferro-alloys and iron or steel products, each where used
Emissions treatment
The net weight of the good multiplied by the Treasury default value under regulation 4 of SI 2026/995, or by the installation's verified emissions intensity under regulation 5.

The checker applies the Table to any eight-digit code. Whether goods are correctly classified under a code is a customs question under paragraph 2(2) of Schedule 16, and the code on the customs declaration decides.

The threshold calculator says when the customs value of covered imports triggers registration, the guide on actual data and default values says how the emissions are determined, and the relief guide says how a carbon price paid abroad reduces the tax.
