Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If suitable solely or principally for clock or watch glasses
Shifts to 7015.10 if designed specifically for timepieces rather than spectacles.
If in sheet form cut to shape but not further curved or hollowed
Chapter notes state cutting to shape does not affect classification in 7005 for float glass sheets.
If optically worked (ground or polished) after curving
Once optically processed for spectacles, it moves to Chapter 90 as corrective lenses.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the glass has not undergone optical working (e.g
• grinding or polishing) to confirm classification under 7015.90
• Provide manufacturer specs confirming curvature or hollowing for spectacle use, avoiding misclassification as finished lenses
• Check for any coatings; absorbent or reflecting layers per chapter notes do not change heading if pre-annealing
