Import Tips
• Include lab reports proving <0.5% water absorption for porcelain claim, distinguishing from stoneware or earthenware under US notes
• Ensure packing lists specify tile count per m² and straight-edge design to match statistical reporting for this subheading
• Watch for backing materials; if on cementitious backing exceeding tile thickness, it may shift to mosaic cubes under different provisions
