Import Tips
• Conduct density tests pre-shipment and include reports in documentation to substantiate classification over lower-gravity alternatives
• Avoid mixing with marble blocks in same container to prevent co-classification disputes at customs
• Declare as 'rough blocks' explicitly; finishing post-import keeps it under this low-duty raw material code
