Aluminium; tubes and pipes, not alloyed
Heading 7608 — Aluminium; tubes and pipes
Chapter 76: Aluminium and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 760810 when importing or exporting non-alloyed aluminum tubes and pipes. For instance, if you're shipping a batch of straight aluminum pipes used in plumbing applications, this is the correct code.
This code specifically covers tubes and pipes made entirely of non-alloyed aluminum, distinguishing them from alloyed versions found under different HS codes. Alloyed aluminum products, such as those with added metals for enhanced strength, fall under HS-6 760820.
Non-alloyed aluminum tubes and pipes are often used in construction, automotive, and manufacturing sectors for applications requiring lightweight yet durable materials. They can be found in various diameters and lengths, typically sold in standard sizes.
When classifying your products, ensure they meet the criteria of being non-alloyed. If your product contains any alloying elements, you may need to use a different HS code. Always check with your customs broker if you’re unsure.

- What types of products are classified under HS code 760810?
- HS code 760810 covers non-alloyed aluminum tubes and pipes, including those used in plumbing, HVAC systems, and various industrial applications.
- How can I tell if my aluminum product is alloyed?
- If your aluminum product contains any additional metals or elements to enhance its properties, it is considered alloyed. Non-alloyed aluminum is pure aluminum without these additives.
- Can I use HS code 760810 for aluminum tubes that are not straight?
- Yes, as long as the tubes are made of non-alloyed aluminum, you can classify bent or shaped tubes under HS code 760810.
- What should I do if I'm unsure about the classification of my aluminum products?
- Consult with a customs broker or trade compliance expert to ensure accurate classification and compliance with customs regulations.
- Are there specific packaging requirements for aluminum tubes and pipes?
- While there are no specific packaging requirements for HS code 760810, ensure that the products are securely packed to prevent damage during shipping.
- What documentation do I need for importing non-alloyed aluminum pipes?
- You will typically need a commercial invoice, packing list, and possibly a certificate of origin, depending on the importing country's regulations.
- Is there a difference in duty rates for alloyed vs non-alloyed aluminum?
- Yes, duty rates can differ between alloyed and non-alloyed aluminum products, so it's important to classify your products correctly to avoid potential penalties.
