Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7606.12.30Same rate: 38%

If intended for can body stock rather than lids

Same alloy/thickness specs but differentiated by specific end-use as body stock vs lid stock within can stock subheading.

7606.11.30Same rate: 38%

If made from unalloyed aluminum (99%+ Al)

Chapter notes define unalloyed aluminum separately; shifts to 7606.11 if purity exceeds alloy thresholds.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify alloy composition meets subheading definitions (Al > other elements, Fe+Si >0.1%) with mill test certificates to avoid reclassification

Provide end-use documentation proving lid stock purpose; common pitfall is mislabeling as general sheet stock

Ensure thickness certification (0.2-6.3mm) and rectangular format; gauge variations can trigger audits
