Scrap of aluminium (excl. slags, scale and the like from iron and steel production, containing recoverable aluminium in the form of silicates, ingots or other similar unwrought shapes, of remelted waste and scrap, of aluminium, and ashes and residues from aluminium production)
Names come in English where the EU Combined Nomenclature publishes them — chapters, headings and subheadings, whose first six digits are the same Harmonized System; deeper EAEU detail is a machine translation, marked as such. Official texts — tariff notes, measures, lists and classification rulings — are the original: customs and your broker go by that wording. Where we show a machine translation of them, it is marked; where our quality check rejected one, the Russian stays.

7602 Waste and scrap aluminum
The provisions relating to waste and scrap in the HS Explanatory Note to heading 7204 apply, mutatis mutandis, to this heading. Aluminum waste and scrap are an important source of raw materials for the aluminum industry. They are also used in metallurgy as a deoxidizing or decarbonizing agent. This heading does not cover: (a) slag, dross, etc. from the production of ferrous metals containing regenerated alu minium in the form of silicates (heading 2618 or 2619); (b) slag, ash and residues from the production of aluminium (heading 2620); (c) ingots and similar untreated forms obtained by the smelting of aluminium waste and scrap (heading 7601).

1. The terms used in this chapter mean:
(a) "non-alloy aluminum" means a metal containing at least 99 % by weight of aluminium, provided that the mass content of each of the other elements does not exceed the limits specified in the following table:
Other elements
Element
Maximum content, wt.%
Fe+Si
(iron plus silicon)
1.0
Other elements (each of them)
0.1
Other elements include, for example, Cr, Cu, Mg, Mn, Ni, Zn.
Copper content is allowed in quantities greater than 0.1 wt.%, but not more than 0.2 wt.%, provided that the content of chromium or manganese is not more than 0.05 wt.%.
(b) "aluminum alloys" means metal alloys in which the aluminium content by mass exceeds that of each of the other elements contained in the alloy, provided that:
(i) the mass content of at least one of the other elements or iron and silicon taken together will exceed the mass limit indicated in the table; or
(ii) the total content of other elements is more than 1% by weight.
2. Notwithstanding the provisions of note 9 (c) to section XV, for the purposes of subheading 7616 91, the term “wire” means only articles rolled up or not rolled into coves and with any shape of cross-section not exceeding 6 mm.

1. In subheading 7601 20 200, the following terms mean:
- "slabs" - raw products having a continuous cross-section throughout the length in the form of rectangles or other polygons, with a width of more than 800 mm, a thickness of more than 280 mm and a length always exceeding the width and thickness. These products are intended for rolling;
- "tickets" - raw products having a continuous cross-section in the form of circles (including "flattened circles"), with a diameter of more than 125 mm. These products are designed for extruding.
