Current is a scalar if it is given as a scalar - such as 5A. There is no direction connected with this. If it is referenced to a voltage - 5A at 30 degrees lagging the voltage - then it is a vector quantity.
Electric Charge is one of the Scalar Quantity which generally creates confusion in the kinds of students that whether it is Scalar or Vector.
It is a Scalar Quantity because it do not have its own direction. It is having Magnitude but its direction depends upon how they are diverted when Electric Potential is applied.
Consider the case of Electric Current, it constitutes from both protons and electrons and we know that the direction of motion of electron is opposite to that of electric current.
When Electric Potential is applied, these electrons move in the direction of Electric Potential Source and electric current in the opposite direction.
Electric current is a scalar.
A scaler quantity is one with magnitude (size) only. ie. not direction dependent. Speed is a scaler quantity, however, velocity is a vector quantity, it has size and direction.

It is a "scalar quantity", it refers to a quantity that has magnitude but no direction, as distinct from a vector quantity
Work is a scalar.
Scaler. Its vector counterpart is the electric field.

fundamental
Scaler Quantity- quantities which are described only by magnitude.Vector Quantity- quantities which are described by both magnitude as well as direction.
Electric charge is a fundamental quantity all its own, like mass, length, and time.
