7606Aluminium; plates, sheets and strip, thickness exceeding 0.2mm

Chapter 76: Aluminium and articles thereof

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 7606 when importing aluminium plates, sheets, or strips thicker than 0.2mm. For example, if you're shipping a batch of rectangular aluminium sheets for construction, this code applies.

When deciding between subheadings, consider whether your product is alloyed or not. If your aluminium sheets are rectangular and not alloyed, you'll use HS-6 760611. However, if they are alloyed, switch to HS-6 760612.

If your aluminium product is not rectangular or square, you'll need to differentiate between alloyed and non-alloyed. For non-alloyed shapes, use HS-6 760691. For alloyed versions, select HS-6 760692.
