Chapter 76: Aluminium and articles thereof

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 7610 when importing aluminium structures such as bridges, towers, or lattice masts. For instance, if you're shipping aluminium frames for windows, this heading is relevant. It covers various structural components made from aluminium, excluding prefabricated buildings.

To differentiate between the subheadings, consider the specific use of the aluminium products. HS-6 761010 applies to structures like doors and windows, including their frames and thresholds. If your shipment consists of these items, this is the correct classification.

On the other hand, if your aluminium products fall under general structural components not specifically mentioned, such as plates, rods, or profiles, you should use HS-6 761090. This category captures all other aluminium structures not covered by the first subheading.
