Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Verify the glass is free of contaminants and not classified as waste/scrap under 7001.00.10 to avoid misclassification

β€’ Provide certificates of composition confirming it's fused silica or standard glass mass, not activated glass from heading 8549

β€’ Declare exact weight and purity levels; common pitfall is undervaluing bulk shipments leading to audits
