Import Tips
• Include technical datasheets proving LCD suitability and exact measurements to match subheading specs
• Avoid common pitfalls by not edge-working sheets pre-import, as that could classify under 7007.xx
• Label shipments clearly as 'LCD glass sheets' with area/thickness details for CBP review
