The U.S. Department of Commerce is establishing the Aluminum Import Monitoring and Analysis (AIM) system, requiring importers, brokers, or agents to obtain a license for each entry of basic aluminum products and disclose the countries where primary aluminum was smelted and where the product was last cast. Aggregate license data will be published on a public monitor to enhance supply-chain transparency.
