Import Tips
• Include technical datasheets showing plain weave structure and lamination process to support Chapter 70 glass fiber classification
• Ensure documentation distinguishes from non-glass fibers; test for SiO2 content if questioned
• Avoid bulk packaging misclassification; declare as fabric rolls, not articles, to prevent shift to 7019.90
