What decides the code
Glass preserving jars with lids are classified under heading 7010 as glass containers used for packing goods, specifically 7010.90.50.25 for jars over 0.33 liter up to 0.473 liter with a mouth 38 mm or wider.
- The jar is made of glass and is a preserving jar, which places it in heading 7010.
- Capacity over 0.33 liter but not over 0.473 liter leads to the 7010.90.50.25 subheading.
- A mouth outer diameter of 38 mm or more is required for 7010.90.50.25.
- The lid is classified with the jar as a closure of the container.
Common mistakes
- Classifying under 7013 as glassware for table or kitchen use is wrong because preserving jars for packing goods belong to heading 7010.
- Using 7010.90.50.15 for jars of this capacity is wrong when the mouth outer diameter is 38 mm or more.
- Classifying the glass lid separately under 7010.20 is wrong when the lid is entered with the jar as its closure.
