Import Tips & Compliance

Verify water absorption via ASTM C373 test (0.5-10% required); provide lab certificates to avoid reclassification as porcelain tableware under Chapter 69 exclusions

Ensure tiles are under 3.2 cm thick per US notes for headings 6905/6907 to qualify as 'tiles'

Declare glazing process and firing temperature (>800°C) in documentation; common pitfall is mislabeling as unfired products excluded from Chapter 69
