7001.00.20.00 - Other

This HTS classification, 7001.00.20.00, covers "Other" glass in the mass. This designation applies to glass in its molten or unfused state, which has not yet been shaped or formed into specific articles or products. It essentially represents raw glass material intended for further processing, such as blowing, pressing, casting, or drawing, to create various glassware items.

It is important to distinguish this category from its sibling, 7001.00.10.00, which specifically addresses glass in the mass made of fused quartz or other fused silica. Therefore, 7001.00.20.00 encompasses all other types of glass in the mass, excluding those composed of fused quartz or fused silica. This includes common types of glass like soda-lime glass, lead glass, borosilicate glass, and others when they are in their raw, unformed state.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. The classification is definitive for all glass in the mass that does not fall under the fused quartz or fused silica classification. Importers and exporters should ensure that the glass in the mass being declared is indeed in its raw, unformed state and not a partially manufactured article or a finished product to correctly apply this classification.
