Import Tips
• Verify the pattern includes all US Note 6(b) articles (12 dinner plates ~26.7cm, 12 salad ~15.3cm, 12 cups/saucers, etc.) sold together to qualify as 'specified sets'
• Calculate aggregate value per set using CBP section 402 valuation; declare accurately to avoid reclassification to higher duty subheadings
• Provide lab certification for <0.5% water absorption per ASTM C373 to confirm porcelain/china status and prevent earthenware misclassification
