7601Aluminium; unwrought

Chapter 76: Aluminium and articles thereof

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 7601 when importing unwrought aluminium, such as large ingots or bars, either alloyed or not alloyed. For instance, if you're bringing in a shipment of pure aluminium ingots for manufacturing, this heading applies directly.

When deciding between HS-6 760110 and HS-6 760120, consider the composition of the aluminium. If it’s pure and not mixed with other metals, go with 760110. However, if the aluminium is alloyed with elements like copper or magnesium, then 760120 is the correct choice.

The distinction between these two subheadings is crucial for compliance and duty rates. Non-alloyed aluminium typically has different tariff implications compared to alloyed forms, so ensure you verify the material specifications before filing.
