Import Tips
• Confirm tile thickness is under 3.2 cm per US notes to avoid classification as 'tiles' in 6907; measure multiple samples
• Provide firing certificates proving post-shaping heat >800°C and glaze application to meet Chapter 69 requirements
• Label material composition accurately; common pitfall is misclassifying porcelain-look tiles as actual porcelain
