Import Tips
• Include supplier affidavits stating no chemical treatment or heating to affirm 'natural' status
• Avoid over-trimming; customs may reclass excessively uniform slabs as 6803 pre-worked material
• Declare exact thickness (under 0.508 mm risks mica confusion, but slate typically thicker)
