Import Tips
• Verify the glass meets 'open envelope' criteria without any metal fittings or seals to avoid reclassification under 7011.20
• Provide manufacturer specs confirming use for incandescent lamps, as documentation is key for customs verification
• Watch for common pitfalls like including assembled bulbs, which shift to HTS 8531; import only bare glass parts
