More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the silicon content is below the alloy threshold and aluminum is at least 99%
Unwrought aluminum, not alloyed, would apply if the product does not meet the alloy definition.
If the ingots have been further worked into plates or sheets
Plates, sheets and strip of aluminum alloys would be classified under this heading.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm the silicon content is at least 25% by weight and provide a certificate of analysis with the shipment
• Keep records of the smelting and casting process to demonstrate primary production
• Check if a free trade agreement rate applies based on the origin of the ingots
