Honed Travertine Block from Germany
Honed travertine blocks, if declared as merely sawn, may qualify for tariff item 2515.12.00, but honing is a processing step beyond cutting. The blocks are calcareous building stone with an apparent specific gravity over 2.5, but the honing could lead to reclassification.

Import Tips
• Be cautious: honing is a processing step beyond merely cutting, which may affect classification
• If the blocks are honed, consider whether they are still 'merely cut' under the tariff
• Provide clear documentation of the processing steps to CBSA
