HS code for Pet food bowl, stainless steel
HS 2022Destination USConfidence 0.85Table, kitchen or other household articles and parts thereof, of iron or steel; iron or steel wool; pot scourers and scouring or polishing pads, gloves and the like, of iron or steel > Other > Of stainless steel
Section XV: Base metals and articles of base metal · Chapter 73: Articles of iron or steel · Heading 7323: Table, kitchen or other household articles and parts thereof, of iron or steel; iron or steel wool; pot scourers and scouring or polishing pads, gloves and the like, of iron or steel
Why this code
The product is a feeding bowl for domestic pets, a household article of stainless steel. Heading 7323 covers table, kitchen or other household articles of iron or steel, and the stainless steel subheading 732393 applies. Stainless steel is a steel grade under Chapter 72, so 732399 (other than stainless) does not fit. Heading 7326 is residual and loses to the more specific 7323 under GRI 3(a). No Section XV note excludes the product: it is not a Chapter 94 or 95 article, and it is not a toy or medicament. Pet bowls are classified here by practice and by their household character.
Rules applied: GRI 1, GRI 3(a), GRI 6, Section XV Note 1, Chapter 73 Note 2.

| 7326.90 | Other articles of iron or steel > Other | Residual heading for other articles of iron or steel; heading 7323 specifically covers household articles and is preferred under GRI 3(a). |
| 7323.10 | Table, kitchen or other household articles and parts thereof, of iron or steel; iron or steel wool; pot scourers and scouring or polishing pads, gloves and the like, of iron or steel > Iron or steel wool; pot scourers and scouring or polishing pads, gloves and the like | Covers only steel wool, pot scourers and scouring pads; a feeding bowl is not one of these. |
Information that would confirm the code
- Is the bowl made of stainless steel (for example grade 304 or 316) rather than coated or plated steel?
- Is it a non-powered, non-toy article intended solely for pet feeding?

Other
Confidence 0.60. A stainless steel pet food bowl is a household article of stainless steel that does not fit the cooking ware or kitchen ware lines, and the product data does not support any specific line, so the residual 'Other' line is chosen with reduced confidence.
