Import Tips & Compliance

Verify firing temperature exceeds 800°C and water absorption per ASTM C373 to confirm Chapter 69 eligibility; provide lab test reports

Ensure tiles measure under 3.2 cm thick to qualify as 'tiles' per US notes for headings 6905/6907; measure maximum dimension

Declare as individual mosaic cubes if not on backing to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is importing backed sheets under wrong subheading
