Aluminum reservoirs, tanks, vats and similar containers, for any material (other than compressed or liquefied gas), of a capacity exceeding 300 liters, whether or not lined or heat insulated, but not fitted with mechanical or thermal equipment

HTS code 7611.00.00 classifies imports of: Aluminum reservoirs, tanks, vats and similar containers, for any material (other than compressed or liquefied gas), of a capacity exceeding 300 liters, whether or not lined or heat insulated, but not fitted with mechanical or thermal equipment. This line sits within Chapter 76 (Aluminium and articles thereof), Section XV (Base Metals and Articles of Base Metal), and is catalogued as a heading in the USITC 2026 Basic Edition. The schedule specifies ad valorem (percentage-of-value) duty for this line. A footnote applies to this classification: See 9903.88.03.

The general (MFN / Column 1 General) rate for HTS 7611.00.00 is 2.6%, which applies to most trading partners of the United States. A special preferential rate of "Free (A,AU,BH,CL,CO,D,E,IL,JO,KR,MA,OM,P,PA,PE,S,SG)" may reduce or eliminate duty when goods qualify under a free trade agreement such as USMCA, CAFTA-DR, or one of the bilateral FTAs. The Column 2 rate of 45% applies to imports from non-MFN countries such as Cuba and North Korea, a much higher historical "full" tariff.

Footnotes: See 9903.88.03. Beyond the published rate, importers should check for Section 201 safeguards, Section 301 China tariffs, and any active AD/CVD orders that can materially change the real landed cost. Always verify the classification with a licensed customs broker before committing to a supply contract, this page is a research tool, not a customs ruling.
