7615.10.71.30 - Bakeware (cookware not suitable for stove top use)

This HTS classification, 7615.10.71.30, specifically designates bakeware manufactured from aluminum, with the explicit exclusion of cookware intended for stovetop use. This category encompasses items such as baking sheets, muffin tins, loaf pans, cake molds, and roasting pans designed solely for oven applications. The material composition is strictly aluminum, and the articles must not feature enameled or glazed surfaces, nor possess nonstick interior finishes.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 7615.10.71.55 ("Other"), is crucial. While the sibling broadly covers other aluminum household articles not specifically itemized, 7615.10.71.30 offers a precise classification for dedicated oven bakeware. Therefore, any aluminum bakeware meeting the material and finish criteria would fall under this specific code, rather than the more general "Other" category. The intent of the article as bakeware, used exclusively in an oven, is the primary determinant.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories for this specific item. Classification concludes at this level, relying on the precise definition of "bakeware (cookware not suitable for stove top use)" in conjunction with the preceding hierarchical descriptors of aluminum household articles, not enameled or glazed, and without nonstick interior finishes.
