Import Tips
• Ensure FDA compliance for food-contact glassware with certificates of analysis for heavy metals and material safety
• Document unit pricing clearly; sets of tumblers may be classified by individual piece value, not total set
• Avoid absorbent/reflecting coatings that could shift to 7005 if pre-annealing processes apply per chapter notes
