Import Tips
• Provide lab analysis confirming opacification is throughout the mass, not a surface treatment, to justify 7004 classification
• Measure and declare sheet thickness accurately; common pitfall is reclassification to thinner subheadings if under-declared
• Include production process certification showing drawn method to differentiate from float glass alternatives
