Last updated: August 2026 dataLaminated and tempered automotive glazing — front windscreens, rear windows, and other windows defined under Chapter 87 Subheading Note 1 — enters the US under a single 10-digit line (8708220000) and is subject to Section 301 tariffs on Chinese-origin goods. Mexico leads supply under this heading, followed by China and Canada, a sourcing mix that reflects both proximity to North American assembly plants and the global concentration of automotive glass manufacturing. Correct classification hinges on whether the glazing meets the Chapter 87 subheading note definition, distinguishing it from flat glass of Chapter 70.

Chapter 87 Subheading Note 1 restricts heading 870822 to windshields, rear windows, and other windows that are specifically shaped or fitted for motor vehicles. Flat or cut-to-size glass not yet shaped for a specific vehicle application typically falls under Chapter 70 rather than 8708220000. Importers should confirm the processing state and intended use with a licensed customs broker before filing.
Beyond standard entry documentation, importers claiming USMCA preferential treatment for Mexican-origin automotive glazing must provide a valid USMCA certification of origin and ensure the product meets the applicable regional value content and tariff shift rules. Given the complexity of automotive parts rules of origin, review by a licensed customs broker is advisable.
