Heading 7613 — Aluminium; containers for compressed or liquefied gas
Chapter 76: Aluminium and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 761300 when importing or exporting aluminium containers designed specifically for holding compressed or liquefied gases. For example, this could include lightweight aluminium gas cylinders used for welding or industrial applications.
This HS-6 line covers containers made entirely of aluminium, distinguishing them from similar products made from other materials. For instance, if you have a steel gas cylinder, it would fall under a different classification.
When considering 761300, note that it specifically pertains to containers that are not only made of aluminium but also designed for gases under pressure. This is different from HS-6 codes for general aluminium products or other types of containers.
If you're dealing with aluminium containers that are not intended for gas, such as storage bins or packaging, you would need to look at different HS-6 codes under the same chapter.
