Import Tips
• Include sales catalog evidence proving the pattern includes all U.S
• Note 6(b) articles like platters and sugars
• Avoid misclassification by ensuring pieces were fired after shaping at ≥800°C, not just cured
• Label shipments clearly distinguishing stoneware from porcelain to prevent reclassification
