Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 701610 when importing or exporting glass cubes and smallwares designed for decorative purposes, such as those used in mosaics. For instance, if you are shipping a batch of colored glass cubes intended for artwork, this is the correct code.

This code specifically covers glass smallwares, including cubes and similar items, that may or may not be mounted on a backing. In contrast, HS-6 701611 covers glass tiles that are larger and specifically designed for flooring or wall applications.

When classifying products under this heading, it’s essential to note the distinction between decorative glass items and functional glassware. For example, glass bricks used in construction would fall under a different subheading, such as HS-6 701690.

Understanding the nuances of this HS-6 line can help ensure compliance with customs regulations. If you're unsure whether your product fits this classification, consider the end use and physical characteristics of the glassware.
