Import Tips
• Verify the glass meets 'open envelope' criteria without any metal fittings or seals to avoid reclassification under 7011.20
• Provide detailed manufacturing specs showing use for electric lamps to confirm exclusion from cathode-ray tube headings
• Ensure proper documentation of silica content if fused quartz to align with chapter definitions of glass
