Import Tips

• Ensure the product is fired above 800°C to qualify for Chapter 69; otherwise it may be excluded

• Declare the item as 'other ceramic articles of porcelain' and keep supplier documentation on firing temperatures

• Verify with a customs broker if the box is sold with buttons, as that could affect classification
