Last updated: April 2026 dataLaminated safety glass for architectural, decorative, and industrial applications — staircase treads, skylights, balustrades, hurricane-resistant windows, and museum display cases — is classified here when not configured for transport use. Mexico and Germany are the leading US import sources, with Italy also a significant supplier. All non-vehicular laminated safety glass consolidates into a single 10-digit line (7007290000), so the classification pivot is the same as for tempered glass: confirming the article is not dimensionally suited for a vehicle, aircraft, spacecraft, or vessel. Architectural laminated glass often incorporates specialty interlayers (acoustic PVB, colored films, or embedded fabrics) that do not affect heading classification but may be relevant to building-code compliance.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes, provided the assembly meets the definition of laminated safety glass — two or more glass plies permanently bonded by an interlayer. The decorative character of the interlayer does not change the heading classification. However, if the decorative element is so dominant that the article's essential character is that of a decorative object rather than a glazing product, a different classification could apply; this is a fact-specific determination best confirmed with a licensed customs broker.
Each line item must be classified separately: vehicular laminated glass under 7007211100 or 7007215100, and non-vehicular laminated glass under 7007290000. Commingling the two on a single HTS line is a classification error. Importers should ensure commercial invoices and packing lists clearly identify the end-use application for each glass type to support accurate entry and avoid potential penalties.
