Import Tips
• Confirm the beads are not drilled or strung in a manner that suggests finished jewelry, which would shift classification to Chapter 71
• Include a sample or image with the customs declaration to support the classification
• Verify the glass composition does not meet the lead crystal threshold if claiming a standard glass rate
