Import Tips
• Include chemical analysis reports proving borosilicate composition to distinguish from soda-lime and support valuation
• Avoid common error of declaring as 'finished articles' if merely annealed; chapter notes keep them in 7002
• Label shipments clearly as 'unworked balls' to prevent CBP reclassifying as worked glass under 7017 lab glassware
