Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If tiles exceed 3229 per square meter or have curved face boundaries
Higher density or non-straight face boundaries classify under the subheading for denser or differently shaped small glazed finishing ceramics.
If unglazed
Unglazed ceramic wall tiles fall under heading 6905 for non-glazed roofing, paving, or wall tiles, outside the glazed finishing ceramics of 6907.
If considered ceramic mosaic for decorative non-wall use
If marketed as ornamental mosaic elements rather than finishing tiles, they may classify as other ceramic articles under 6914.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify water absorption via ASTM C373 test to confirm classification as non-earthenware finishing ceramics, as higher absorption may shift to Chapter 69 earthenware headings
• Provide firing certificates and dimension proofs showing largest face fits <7 cm square and density ≤3229/m² to avoid misclassification as larger tiles under 6907.40.40
• Label tiles clearly as 'finishing ceramics' and include backing details if present; common pitfall is importing unfired or resin-cured products excluded from Chapter 69
