Import Tips
• Verify the glass is free of contaminants and not classified as waste/scrap under 7001.00.10 to avoid misclassification
• Provide certificates of composition confirming it's fused silica or standard glass mass, not activated glass from heading 8549
• Declare exact weight and purity levels; common pitfall is undervaluing bulk shipments leading to audits
