HS Code Classification for ALUMINUM FOIL INSULATION TAPE
Based on the provided reference data, here's a breakdown of potential HS code classifications for "ALUMINUM FOIL INSULATION TAPE", along with explanations and considerations:
1. 7607.11.90.90 – Aluminum foil (whether or not printed, or backed with paper, paperboard, plastics or similar backing materials) of a thickness (excluding any backing) not exceeding 0.2 mm: Not backed: Rolled but not further worked: Other
- 76: Aluminum and aluminum articles. This chapter covers products made of aluminum.
- 07: Foil. Specifically designates aluminum foil.
- 07.11: Not backed. Indicates the foil doesn't have a backing material like paper or plastic.
- 07.11.90: Rolled but not further worked. This suggests the foil has been rolled but hasn't undergone significant processing beyond that.
- 07.11.90.90: Other. A catch-all for foil not fitting more specific subcategories.
- Applicability: If the tape consists primarily of aluminum foil with a thickness of 0.2mm or less and hasn't been significantly altered beyond rolling, this is a strong candidate.
- Tax Rate: 33.0% (Base Tariff: 3.0%, Additional Tariff: 0.0%, Post-April 2, 2025: 30% Additional Tariff)
2. 7607.19.60.00 – Aluminum foil (whether or not printed, or backed with paper, paperboard, plastics or similar backing materials) of a thickness (excluding any backing) not exceeding 0.2 mm: Not backed: Other: Other: Other
- 76: Aluminum and aluminum articles.
- 07: Foil.
- 07.19: Other. This covers foil not specifically categorized elsewhere.
- 07.19.60: Not backed.
- 07.19.60.00: Other. A general category for foil not fitting more specific descriptions.
- Applicability: If the tape is aluminum foil (≤0.2mm thick, no backing) and doesn't fall into the 'rolled but not further worked' category, this is a possibility.
- Tax Rate: 33.0% (Base Tariff: 3.0%, Additional Tariff: 0.0%, Post-April 2, 2025: 30% Additional Tariff)
3. 3919.10.20.55 – Self-adhesive plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, strip and other flat shapes, of plastics, whether or not in rolls: In rolls of a width not exceeding 20 cm: Other Other: Other
- 39: Plastics and articles thereof.
- 19: Self-adhesive plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, strip and other flat shapes.
- 19.10: In rolls.
- 19.10.20: Width not exceeding 20 cm.
- 19.10.20.55: Other.
- Applicability: If the tape is primarily made of plastic with an aluminum foil layer for insulation and is supplied in rolls ≤20cm wide, this HS code is relevant.
- Tax Rate: 60.8% (Base Tariff: 5.8%, Additional Tariff: 25.0%, Post-April 2, 2025: 30% Additional Tariff)
4. 3919.90.50.60 – Self-adhesive plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, strip and other flat shapes, of plastics, whether or not in rolls: Other: Other Other
- 39: Plastics and articles thereof.
- 19: Self-adhesive plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, strip and other flat shapes.
- 19.90: Other.
- 19.90.50: Other.
- 19.90.50.60: Other.
- Applicability: If the tape is primarily plastic with an aluminum foil layer and not in rolls, or rolls wider than 20cm, this HS code is applicable.
- Tax Rate: 60.8% (Base Tariff: 5.8%, Additional Tariff: 25.0%, Post-April 2, 2025: 30% Additional Tariff)
Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Material Composition: The primary material of the tape is crucial. Is it mostly aluminum foil, or mostly plastic with an aluminum foil layer?
- Thickness: Verify the thickness of the aluminum foil layer. Is it ≤0.2mm?
- Backing: Does the tape have any backing material (paper, cloth, etc.)?
- Roll Width: If in roll form, measure the width.
- Intended Use: While not definitive, the intended use (insulation) might influence classification.
- Certification: Depending on the application (e.g., building insulation), specific certifications might be required.
- Consultation: It is highly recommended to consult with a customs broker or local customs authority for a definitive classification based on the specific product details. Provide them with a detailed product specification sheet and, if possible, a sample of the tape.
