Import Tips

Verify glass composition to confirm it's not lead crystal (min 24% PbO) or glass-ceramics to avoid reclassification

Provide detailed valuation documentation per unit, as value determines subheading within 7013.37

Label as 'drinking glass' for table use; avoid office/indoor decoration claims to prevent shifts to other subheadings
