If made of marble instead of granite
Marble monuments are classified separately under the marble-specific subheading within the same 'other' category.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify stone origin and provide geological certification to confirm it's natural granite, not artificially colored
• Ensure dimensions are documented with maximum thickness >7.5cm to avoid reclassification to thinner subheadings
• Include proof of surface working beyond simple sawing, such as polishing or carving, to meet 'articles for monumental purposes' criteria
