HS code for Aluminum profile: 7604.10

Aluminium, (not alloyed), bars, rods and profiles.

Classification of aluminum profile under HS 7604.10

Aluminum profiles of non-alloyed aluminum are classified under HS code 7604.10. This heading covers bars, rods, and profiles. A "profile" is defined in the legal notes of Chapter 76 as a rolled, extruded, drawn, forged, or formed product, whether or not in coils, of a uniform cross-section along its entire length, which does not conform to any of the definitions of bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strip, foil, tubes, or pipes. The classification 7604.10 is specific to non-alloyed aluminum, which is aluminum containing at least 99% aluminum by weight. These profiles are typically used as raw materials in construction, manufacturing, and engineering. The classification depends on the product remaining a semi-finished shape; once it is fabricated into a specific structure (like a window frame), it is classified elsewhere. The uniform cross-section is the defining characteristic that separates these from more complex manufactured goods.

Codes often confused with 7604.10

Common mistake. The most frequent misclassification for aluminum profiles is HS code 7610.10 or 7610.90. Heading 7610 is for aluminum structures and parts of structures (e.g., doors, windows, or bridge sections). If a profile has been drilled, bent, or otherwise prepared for use in a specific structure, it moves from 7604 to 7610. Additionally, if the profile is hollow, it should be classified as a tube or pipe under 7608.10 rather than a profile under 7604.10.

Top exporters and importers of HS 760410 (the code used for aluminum profile), 2025

In 2025, the largest exporter of HS 760410 (the code used for aluminum profile) in UN Comtrade data was Saudi Arabia, with 14% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was the Netherlands, with 15% of world imports. Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
