Last updated: July 2026 dataChina dominates US imports under this heading, which spans corrective eyeglasses, safety goggles, and other protective eyewear not classified elsewhere. The US schedule distinguishes safety glasses or safety goggles (9004900010) from the broader residual category (9004900090), a split that matters for ANSI/OSHA compliance documentation and for buyers sourcing personal protective equipment. Mexico, as a USMCA partner, is a notable supplier whose goods may qualify for preferential duty treatment, making origin verification and certificate-of-origin documentation especially relevant for importers.
