Import Tips

Verify tile dimensions to confirm largest surface fits within 7 cm square; measure precisely to avoid reclassification to larger tile headings

Provide firing certificates proving temperature over 800°C and water absorption tests per ASTM C373 for Chapter 69 eligibility

Label as 'finishing ceramics' and avoid bulk packaging resembling construction materials to prevent scrutiny under heading 6907 exclusions
