Import Tips
• Confirm that the tiles are fired at temperatures above 800°C, as lower-temperature products are excluded from Chapter 69
• Keep records of the material composition, including clay and siliceous content, to support classification
• Check whether the tiles contain any excisable goods like alcohol or tobacco, which would trigger additional duty under statistical note 1
