Chapter 76 covers aluminum and articles thereof, and is one of the chapters in the HS classification organized by material. This chapter includes unwrought aluminum, aluminum materials (such as bars, rods, profiles, wire, plates, sheets, strip, foil), aluminum tubes and pipes, aluminum structures, aluminum containers, aluminum stranded wire, cables, etc., as well as various aluminum household articles. However, aluminum machinery, mechanical appliances, electrical equipment, etc. are still classified under Chapter 84, Chapter 85, etc. This chapter aims to distinguish aluminum raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished products, and corresponds to other chapters on metal articles (such as Chapter 73, articles of iron or steel). Heading 7615 covers aluminum table, kitchen or other household articles, and aluminum sanitary ware and parts thereof. Specifically, it includes: aluminum pots, kettles, basins, trays, cups, spoons, forks, and other tableware; aluminum pressure cookers, frying pans, baking trays, and other kitchenware; aluminum buckets, trash cans, washbasins, and other household articles; and aluminum sanitary utensils such as spittoons, bedpans, etc. However, note that if aluminum tableware has ceramic or glass parts, it must be determined according to the proportion of materials or primary function; aluminum electric kitchen appliances are classified under 8509; aluminum furniture is classified under 9403. Code 761510 is a 6-digit subheading. The first 2 digits "76" indicate Chapter 76 (aluminum and articles thereof). Digits 3-4 "15" indicate heading 7615 (aluminum table, kitchen or other household articles; aluminum sanitary ware and parts thereof). Digits 5-6 "10" indicate subheading 761510, specifically aluminum table, kitchen or other household articles (excluding sanitary ware). This subheading may be further subdivided (e.g., by whether coated, whether with handles, etc.), but the 6-digit code already satisfies basic classification. Note: 7615 also includes subheading 761520 (aluminum sanitary ware and parts thereof), so 761510 specifically refers to household articles, excluding sanitary ware. This commodity is aluminum table, kitchen or other household articles, belonging to aluminum household articles, and is not sanitary ware, so it is classified under 761510 rather than 761520. At the same time, it does not belong to aluminum structures (7610), aluminum containers (7612-7614), or aluminum stranded wire (7614). Compared with Chapter 73 articles of iron or steel, the material being aluminum is key. If it is an aluminum electric appliance, it is classified under 8509; if it is aluminum furniture, it is classified under 9403. Therefore, 761510 is the code specifically for non-electric aluminum household articles.

Product name: Fill in the Chinese and English names of the commodity, which should be specific and clear, such as "aluminum non-stick frying pan", "aluminum lunch box", etc., and avoid broadly writing "aluminum products". Material: Explain the type of aluminum (such as pure aluminum, aluminum alloy) and content. If it is an aluminum alloy, indicate the main components, such as "aluminum alloy (containing 95% aluminum)". Use: Describe the specific use, such as "for kitchen cooking", "for serving food on the dining table", "for household storage", etc., and it must be related to household use. Brand: Fill in the brand name (if no brand, fill in "none"). The brand helps customs identify the attributes of the commodity. Specifications and model: Fill in dimensions, capacity, weight, etc., such as "diameter 20cm, capacity 1L", to facilitate customs statistics and valuation. Processing method: Explain the forming process, such as "stamping", "die casting", "stretch forming", etc. Different processes may affect classification. Whether coated: If the surface has a coating (such as non-stick coating, oxide layer), indicate the coating material, such as "polytetrafluoroethylene coating". Packaging method: Explain whether it is retail packaging or industrial packaging, such as "retail packaging, 10 pieces per set". Retail packaging may affect the dutiable value. Product name: aluminum non-stick frying pan; Material: aluminum alloy (containing 98% aluminum); Use: for kitchen cooking; Brand: ABC; Specifications and model: diameter 28cm, capacity 2L; Processing method: stamping; Whether coated: yes, polytetrafluoroethylene coating; Packaging method: retail packaging, 6 pieces per box. Mistakenly classifying aluminum sanitary ware (such as spittoons) under 761510, when they should actually be classified under 761520. Mistakenly classifying aluminum electric appliances (such as electric blenders) under 761510, when they should actually be classified under 8509. Mistakenly classifying aluminum furniture (such as aluminum tables and chairs) under 761510, when they should actually be classified under 9403.

The core criteria for classification are: 1) the material must be aluminum or aluminum alloy; 2) the use is table, kitchen or other household, not industrial, commercial or sanitary; 3) non-electric; 4) non-furniture. If all are satisfied, it is classified under 761510. If it is aluminum sanitary ware, it is classified under 761520; if it is an aluminum electric appliance, it is classified under 8509; if it is aluminum furniture, it is classified under 9403; if it is an aluminum structure, it is classified under 7610; if it is an aluminum container (such as a bucket or can), it is classified under 7612-7614. In addition, if the commodity has ceramic or glass parts, it must be determined according to the primary function or material proportion. 761520 Aluminum sanitary ware and parts thereof: 761520 specifically refers to sanitary ware, such as spittoons, bedpans, toilets, etc., while 761510 is household articles, such as pots, bowls, ladles, basins. The uses are different. 8509 Electric kitchen appliances: 8509 covers electric kitchen appliances, such as electric blenders, electric juicers, etc., while 761510 is non-electric aluminum articles. If it has an electric function, it is classified under 8509. 9403 Other furniture: 9403 covers various furniture, including aluminum tables, chairs, cabinets, etc., while 761510 is household articles, not furniture. If it is an aluminum dining table, if designed as furniture (such as movable, with legs), it may be classified under 9403. 7610 Aluminum structures: 7610 covers aluminum structures, such as doors, windows, frames, etc., used in construction or industry, while 761510 is household articles, with different uses. 7612 Aluminum containers: 7612 covers aluminum containers, such as buckets, cans, boxes, etc., used for storage or transport, while 761510 is household articles, such as pots, bowls, etc., with different uses. Is the material aluminum or aluminum alloy? Is the use household (table, kitchen or other)? Is it a non-electric article? Is it non-sanitary ware? Is it non-furniture?

Which HS code should an aluminum pressure cooker be classified under? An aluminum pressure cooker belongs to aluminum kitchenware. If it is non-electric, it should be classified under 761510. However, note that if the pressure cooker has an electric function (such as an electric pressure cooker), it is classified under 8509. When classifying, it is necessary to confirm whether it is electric and declare elements such as material and use. How to distinguish an aluminum lunch box from aluminum sanitary ware? An aluminum lunch box is used for holding food and belongs to kitchen or table articles, classified under 761510; while aluminum sanitary ware such as spittoons and bedpans are classified under 761520. The key to distinction is use: lunch boxes are for eating, sanitary ware is for sanitation. The use should be clearly stated when declaring. How should aluminum tableware with a ceramic handle be classified? If aluminum tableware has a ceramic handle, it must be determined according to the primary material or function. If aluminum is the main material and the function is tableware, it may still be classified under 761510; but if the ceramic part constitutes the essential character, it may be classified under Chapter 69 ceramic products. It is recommended to provide material proportions and functional descriptions, and apply for advance classification if necessary. Does the coating on an aluminum non-stick pan affect classification? The coating itself does not affect classification, and it is still classified under 761510, but the coating material must be indicated when declaring, such as polytetrafluoroethylene. The coating may affect customs valuation or certain trade control measures, so it should be declared truthfully. How to distinguish an aluminum dining table from aluminum furniture? If an aluminum dining table is designed as furniture (such as fixed, with legs, used for placing items), it is usually classified under 9403; if it is a small, portable dining table, it may be classified under 761510. The key to distinction is whether it meets the definition of furniture: furniture is usually used for fixed or movable furnishings indoors and outdoors, while household articles focus more on function.
