Import Tips & Compliance

Obtain manufacturer certification confirming water absorption between 0.5% and 10% per ASTM C373 to avoid reclassification as porcelain tableware or unglazed tiles

Ensure tiles are under 3.2 cm thick and provide lab test reports; common pitfall is incorrect dimension reporting leading to duty adjustments

Declare as wall tiles only if primarily marketed for walls; include installation specs to differentiate from floor tiles
