Glass Camera Lens Element
A single convex-concave glass lens element used in consumer digital camera assemblies, not optically worked beyond basic shaping. It falls under HTS 7014.00.30.00 as an optical element of glass that is a lens not meeting the criteria for heading 7015 due to lacking precision optical processing. Signaling and other non-optically worked glass lenses are classified here.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If precision optically worked for cameras
Optically worked lenses for photographic cameras shift to Chapter 90 for finished optical elements.
If for projection TV or video monitors
Optical glass for specific display applications falls under heading 7015.
If still in float sheet form before cutting to lens shape
Uncut float glass sheets are classified under 7005, as cutting to shape does not constitute working per chapter notes.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the glass is not optically worked (e.g
• no precision grinding or polishing) to avoid reclassification to 9002.90
• Provide detailed specifications on curvature, dimensions, and manufacturing process in entry documentation
