Import Tips

• Verify water absorption exceeds 10% via ASTM C373 test; retain lab reports for CBP review to confirm classification from porcelain

• Measure largest surface area precisely to ensure it fits within 7 cm square; photos and dimensions aid smooth entry

• Avoid misdeclaration as mosaic cubes if tiles are uniform and not on backing; common pitfall leads to reclassification
