Import Tips

• Verify porcelain classification via ASTM C373 water absorption test (≤0.5% required); provide lab certificates to avoid reclassification as earthenware

• Include detailed technical specs and fired ceramic confirmation in entry docs; common pitfall is mislabeling as plastic or unfinished ware

• Ensure compliance with US plumbing standards (e.g

• ASME A112.19.2) for smooth customs clearance and avoid antidumping scrutiny on Chinese origins
