Last updated: August 2026 dataImported glassware and chinaware span a wide range of tableware and decorative articles, from lead-crystal stemware to porcelain dinnerware sets. Classification within this end-use category turns on material composition (glass versus ceramic), intended use (tabletop versus ornamental), and whether articles are hand-blown or machine-made — distinctions that affect both duty rates and Section 301 exposure for goods of Chinese origin. Buyers sourcing from multiple origins should verify HTS classification carefully, as similar-looking articles can fall under meaningfully different tariff treatments.

End-Use codes describe different products on the import and export sides. Cross-direction exports are not shown for this slug.
Glass and ceramic articles are classified under distinct HTS chapters — glass tableware generally falls under Chapter 70, while porcelain and other ceramic dinnerware falls under Chapter 69. Even within those chapters, subcategories depend on factors like lead content, manufacturing method (hand-blown vs. machine-made), and whether the article is for household or hotel/restaurant use. Misclassification between these groups is a common audit finding.
Many glassware and chinaware articles originating in China are subject to Section 301 tariffs. The specific rate and list applicability depend on the 10-digit HTS subheading, so importers should confirm the applicable list and any granted exclusions with a licensed customs broker before entry.
