Import Tips & Compliance

Verify porcelain composition via ASTM C373 water absorption test (≤0.5%) and provide firing certificates to confirm Chapter 69 eligibility

Ensure country-of-origin marking on packaging; common pitfall is misclassifying glazed earthenware as porcelain

Include installation specs in documentation to avoid reclassification as building materials under Chapter 68
