Import Tips
• Provide documentation from an art expert or appraiser confirming the mosaic is an original hand-executed work by an artist, not a commercial craft
• Verify the plaque is over 100 years old to potentially qualify as an antique, but note that heading 97.01 takes precedence over 97.06
• If the plaque has a frame, ensure it is of normal kind and value to avoid separate classification
