According to China Customs, in April 2025, China exported 262,900 tonnes of alumina, up 101.6 per cent Y-o-Y; imported 10,700 tonnes of alumina, down 90.1 per cent Y-o-Y; and had a net alumina import of 252,200 tonnes in April.
From January to April 2025, China's cumulative alumina imports reached 99,500 tonnes, down 90.6 per cent Y-o-Y; cumulative alumina exports reached 964,500 tonnes, up 74.7 per cent Y-o-Y; and cumulative net alumina imports stood at 865,000 tonnes. (Based on the 8-digit HS code: 28182000)
In April 2025, some export orders concluded during the previous period when China's alumina export window was open were still being executed, and China's monthly alumina exports remained high. However, as May began, the impact of previous export orders was expected to further diminish, and alumina exports were projected to decrease further. Meanwhile, it was reported that some long-term alumina import contracts had arrived, and alumina imports were expected to increase in May. As a result, the monthly net alumina exports in May were anticipated to significantly decrease.
