7013.49.40.00 - Valued over $5 each 🖩

This HTS category, 7013.49.40.00, encompasses glassware primarily intended for table or kitchen use, excluding those made of glass-ceramics. The key defining characteristic for classification under this heading is its value. Specifically, it covers items valued at over $5.00 each. Examples include serving dishes, bowls, platters, butter dishes, and other food preparation or serving articles that are not drinking glasses and are not designed for offices, toilets, or general indoor decoration.

It is crucial to differentiate this category from its sibling, 7013.49.30.00, which covers similar glassware but is specifically for items valued at over $3.00 but not exceeding $5.00 each. Therefore, the primary distinction lies in the individual item's declared customs value. Goods classified here must meet the criteria for table or kitchen glassware and exceed the higher value threshold of $5.00 per unit.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification within this category is determined by the type of glassware (table or kitchen, excluding drinking glasses and glass-ceramics), its specific purpose, and, critically, its individual value exceeding $5.00. The "cut or engraved" designation within the parent heading implies that while this specific subcategory doesn't add further detail, the preceding level focuses on decorative finishes. However, for this particular classification, the value is the paramount deciding factor in distinguishing it from the sibling category.
