3 six-digit codes · Heading 10 of 19 in Chapter 70 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
This page explains what fits here, what does not, and how to pick the right six-digit code.
“Carboys, bottles, flasks, jars, pots, phials, ampoules, containers of glass of a kind used for the conveyance or packing of goods; preserving jars of glass; stoppers, lids and other closures of glass” divides three ways under heading 7010 — 701010, 701020 and 701090. Each carries its own customs description, and the exact wording below is what a classification has to match. The heading is number 10 of 19 in Chapter 70, Glass and glassware, which runs to 71 six-digit codes in all.
Six-digit codes under heading 7010
| HS Code | Import–export description |
|---|---|
| 701010 | Glass; ampoules, of a kind used for the conveyance or packing of goods |
| 701020 | Glass; stoppers, lids and other closures |
| 701090 | Glass; carboys, bottles, flasks, jars, pots, phials and other containers of glass, (not ampoules), used for the conveyance or packing of goods |
What HS code 7010 covers
This heading is for glass containers that hold goods while they are packed, stored or moved. Ampoules belong here too. So do preserving jars and the glass stoppers, lids and closures that seal them.
The key test is use. The wording says glass of a kind used for the conveyance or packing of goods. The container exists to carry a product. It is not the finished item a shopper keeps on a table at home.
Many people search for the HSN code for glass bottle. HSN is the name some countries use for the same Harmonized System code, so the answer starts with 7010.
Subheading 701090, 701020 and 701010 in plain words
Each heading splits into six-digit codes. These are the same in most countries. Here is what each one means in simple terms.
- The closure is classified on its own here.
- Ampoules are left out.
How glass bottle is classified under HS
Start with the item in front of you. Then ask three short questions.
Subheading 701090 is where most plain glass packaging lands, because it is the broad group for containers that are not ampoules. A clear label or product sheet helps you match the exact wording of the customs description.
- Is it an ampoule? Use 701010.
- Is it only a stopper, lid or other closure? Use 701020.
- Is it a bottle, jar, flask, carboy, pot or phial made to pack goods? Use 701090.
HS 7010 vs 7013, 7017 and other glass headings
Not every glass vessel belongs in 7010. Glassware for the table, kitchen, toilet, office or indoor decoration goes to 7013, and that heading says it leaves out 7010. A drinking glass or a serving jar made for the home points to 7013.
Laboratory, hygienic or pharmaceutical glassware, including graduated or calibrated pieces, goes to 7017. Glass bulbs and tubes for lamps go to 7011. Glass articles not named anywhere else in the chapter go to 7020. Waste glass and scrap go to 7001.
If two headings seem to fit, read the full wording of both. The HS code classifier can also help you compare.
