Import Tips
• Verify stone origin with geological certificates to confirm granite composition and avoid misclassification as marble or other stone
• Ensure slabs meet 'simply cut or sawn with flat surface' criteria; excessive polishing may shift to other subheadings
• Provide mill test reports for customs valuation, as granite slabs are often assessed on weight and surface area
