Import Tips
• Include test reports per ASTM standards showing low water absorption and high firing temp to confirm Chapter 69 eligibility
• Label shipments clearly as 'refractory constructional goods' to prevent confusion with decorative tiles (6907-6914)
• Check for minimum thickness; US note excludes tiles ≥3.2cm thick from certain headings but applies here as refractory
