7003.20.00.00Lower: 36.1% vs 42.2%

If cast or rolled rather than drawn

Cast/rolled glass with similar tinting or opacification stays in 7003, differentiated by production method per chapter hierarchy.

7007.21Lower: 14.9% vs 42.2%

If tempered for safety glazing

Tempering adds a working process post-drawing, shifting to 7007 for tempered safety glass sheets.

7010.90.50Lower: 35% vs 42.2%

If made into bottles or containers

If formed into hollow vessels rather than flat sheets, classification moves to 7010 for glass bottles and containers.

Import Tips & Compliance

Submit chemical analysis proving opacification is throughout the mass, not a surface treatment, to stay in 7004

Label shipments clearly as 'drawn glass sheets' to avoid confusion with cast or rolled glass under 7003

Check for unintentional absorbent layers from manufacturing; declare them explicitly if present
