Overview
This HTS classification, 7004.90.30.50, specifically covers drawn glass and blown glass, presented in sheets, that have undergone no further working beyond the potential addition of an absorbent, reflecting, or non-reflecting layer. The defining characteristic for this category is its specific area measurement: the sheets of glass must be larger than 0.26 square meters but not exceed 0.65 square meters. This precise dimensioning is crucial for distinguishing these glass sheets from others within the same broader classifications.
This particular subcategory is differentiated from its sibling, "Measuring not over 0.26 m2 in area," based solely on the upper limit of the glass sheet's surface area. Both categories fall under the umbrella of "Other glass" and "In rectangular shape," and "Measuring over 3.5 mm in thickness," but the critical determinant for classification here is whether the area is within the 0.26 to 0.65 square meter range. This precise measurement ensures accurate tariff application for goods of comparable size and potential use.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification within 7004.90.30.50 is final once the glass sheet meets all the preceding criteria, including its origin as drawn or blown glass, its presentation in sheets (whether or not layered), its rectangular shape, its thickness exceeding 3.5 mm, and most importantly, its area falling within the specified range of over 0.26 m2 but not over 0.65 m2.
