Import Tips
• Verify firing temperature exceeds 800°C and provide lab tests confirming water absorption per ASTM C373 if challenged on classification
• Ensure documentation specifies exact dimensions to confirm largest surface <38.7 cm² and fits within 7cm square
• Avoid classifying as roofing tiles (6905.10); mosaic cubes must not exceed thickness limits for tiles in 6907
