Classification of lead crystal tableware under HS 7013.41
Lead crystal tableware is classified under HS code 7013.41. This classification is part of Chapter 70 (Glass and Glassware) and heading 7013 (Glassware for table or kitchen purposes). Subheading 7013.41 specifically excludes drinking glasses, which are covered in earlier subheadings, and focuses on other functional items used for serving or food preparation. The classification requires the material to meet the legal definition of lead crystal, which necessitates a lead monoxide content of at least 24% by weight. This code is used for high-end serving pieces where the clarity and weight of lead crystal are primary features. The classification process involves verifying that the item is intended for table or kitchen use and confirming the chemical composition of the glass through technical specifications.

Codes often confused with 7013.41
Common mistake. A common misclassification occurs with HS code 7013.49, which is the category for other table or kitchen glassware. If the item does not meet the 24% lead monoxide threshold, it must be classified under 7013.49. Furthermore, lead crystal items intended for purely decorative purposes, such as figurines or non-functional vases, should be classified under 7013.91 rather than 7013.41. Confusion also arises with drinking glasses; even if they are part of a table set, lead crystal drinking glasses must be classified under 7013.22 (stemware) or 7013.33 (other drinking glasses).

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
