Import Tips
• Conduct fiber content—no, glass composition testing to confirm no lead additives exceeding 24% PbO threshold
• Use detailed commercial invoices specifying unit value and 'for table use' to prevent customs disputes
• Check for any absorbent or reflecting coatings, as per chapter notes, which could affect classification if they alter light properties
