Aluminum Price References

The standard VAT policy for aluminum products in China generally follows current national tax regulations. The final invoiced tax can vary by product type, trade mode, and rebate policy updates.

Use the benchmark nearest to your delivery region and product channel. Changjiang is widely referenced nationally, while Nanhai and Zhongyuan can better reflect local spot liquidity and conversion costs.

For daily references, combine exchange settlement data with mainstream spot quotations and verified supplier transaction feedback. Cross-checking multiple sources helps reduce one-source bias.

Benchmark quotations can be tax-inclusive or tax-exclusive depending on the source format. Always confirm whether VAT is included before comparing offers or issuing purchase decisions.

Include alloy, temper, dimensions, quantity, destination, tax basis, and delivery terms in your RFQ. Clear specs allow suppliers to lock benchmark references and quote with tighter accuracy.
