Import Tips
• Provide lab test results for water absorption (<0.5% for porcelain) using ASTM C373 to distinguish from earthenware or stoneware
• Document exact dimensions and unglazed status; common pitfall is assuming glaze presence changes classification incorrectly
• Ensure no metal fittings or exclusions under Chapter 82/83; declare as loose cubes, not pre-assembled panels
