Import Tips
• Verify stone origin with geological certificates to confirm travertine classification and avoid mislabeling as marble
• Provide detailed invoices specifying 'dressed or polished only' to prevent reclassification as further worked goods
• Comply with building material import standards; test for radioactivity if from certain quarries
