Quartzite Building Coping Stones from United States
Quartzite building coping stones, sawn flat on all sides with smooth, even surfaces, are used to cap roofs or walls in monumental architecture. Under tariff item 6802.29.00, they qualify as worked monumental or building stone (other than slate) that is simply cut or sawn, with quartzite explicitly recognized in Chapter 68 Note 2 as a natural stone covered by this heading.

Import Tips
• Ensure the stones are only sawn or cut with a flat, even surface—additional polishing or carving could shift classification to another tariff item
• Declare the quartzite's country of origin accurately, as CBSA may request proof for duty rate application
• Keep commercial invoices with detailed dimensions and surface finish descriptions to avoid delays
