HS HEADING 7605

Aluminium wire

In plain English

This heading covers aluminium wire, distinguishing between pure aluminium and aluminium alloys. The classification depends on the wire's thickness, specifically whether its widest point is larger than 7mm or 7mm or smaller. Pure aluminium wire is separated into these two size categories, as are aluminium alloy wires.

6-digit subheadings (4)

Official HS 2022 subheading texts. National tariff schedules subdivide these further (8-10 digit lines) and set the actual duty rates.

7605.11

Aluminium; (not alloyed), wire, maximum cross-sectional dimension exceeds 7mm

7605.19

Aluminium; (not alloyed), wire, maximum cross-sectional dimension is 7mm or less

7605.21

Aluminium; alloys, wire, maximum cross-sectional dimension exceeding 7mm

7605.29

Aluminium; alloys, wire, maximum cross-sectional dimension is 7mm or less

Chapter 76 classification notes

US Section 232 tariffs (10%) apply to most aluminium imports. Anti-dumping duties on Chinese aluminium extrusions in US and EU. Recycled/secondary aluminium classified differently from primary.

Frequent misclassification in this chapter

Aluminium alloys with specific compositions may classify differently. Articles made predominantly of aluminium but with other metal components — classify by the predominant metal.

Classification certainty

The 6-digit level shown here is the internationally harmonised layer. Duty rates attach to national 8-10 digit tariff lines, which differ by country — use the duty calculator for lane estimates. For binding certainty, request a ruling from the destination customs authority.
