Import Tips & Compliance

Include tensile strength test data in documentation to substantiate S-glass classification versus commodity grades

Declare exact filament count and sizing chemistry, as variations may affect duty treatment

Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain Asian-origin S-glass products; check Commerce Department scopes
