Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 700420 when importing or exporting sheets of colored glass that are tinted throughout the mass. For example, if you're shipping large sheets of opacified glass used in decorative windows, this is the code to use.
This code specifically covers glass that is not only colored but also includes features like reflecting or non-reflecting layers. It differs from HS-6 700430, which pertains to glass sheets that are worked further, such as polished or engraved.
When considering HS-6 700420, think about products like colored glass panels used in architecture or design. If the glass is simply tinted without additional processing, this classification applies.
