Body Tinted Cast Green Glass Sheets from Japan
These are cast and rolled glass sheets colored green throughout the mass via metal oxides added during melting, used primarily in architectural glazing. They fall under HTS 7003.12.00.00 because they are nonwired sheets with body tinting as defined in the chapter notes, not otherwise worked beyond annealing. The tint provides solar control without additional coatings.

Import Tips
• Verify tint is throughout the mass (body tinted) via lab testing; surface coatings may shift to 7005
• Provide mill test certificates confirming cast/rolled process and no further working like polishing
• Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring sheets meet nonwired specs; wired variants go to 7003.11
