Import Tips

• Test for porcelain traits (translucency, <0.5% absorption) via ASTM C373; mislabeling as earthenware risks reclassification

• Import as loose cubes only; if mesh-backed, may shift to finishing ceramics or other mosaic subheadings

• Avoid bulk packaging mimicking flags; declare dimensions to prevent upsizing to 6907.21 unglazed flags
