Import Tips
• Provide architectural specifications and installation drawings to demonstrate building stone end-use and prevent misclassification as decorative articles
• Ensure panels meet dimensional tolerances for 'worked' status; irregular shapes may revert to rough stone categories
• Obtain quarry origin certificates to comply with country-of-origin rules and potential trade remedy duties
