Overview

This HTS category, 7010.90.50.55, specifically covers glass containers such as vials, ampoules, and other small vessels designed for the conveyance or packing of goods, with a precise capacity not exceeding 0.118 liters. These are typically small-volume containers, often used for pharmaceuticals, essential oils, or single-dose products, where the exact measurement of capacity is a critical classification determinant.

Distinction from sibling categories is based solely on the stated volume. For instance, this category is separate from containers "Of a capacity exceeding 0.118 liter but not exceeding 0.15 liter" and other sibling categories that cover progressively larger volume ranges. The defining characteristic here is the strict upper limit of 0.118 liters.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node in the classification structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code relies entirely on confirming that the glass container's capacity falls within the specified 0.118-liter limit. Examples include small sample vials, miniature perfume bottles, or single-use medicinal ampoules where precise containment of small volumes is essential.
