Import Tips
• Submit spectral analysis reports proving layer absorbs/reflects specific light wavelengths per chapter definitions
• Declare as 'float glass' explicitly, distinguishing from drawn glass to stay out of 7004
• Watch for misdeclaration as general construction glass; emphasize LCD end-use in invoices
