Import Tips

• Verify stoneware composition via ASTM C373 water absorption test (>0.5% but typically <3% for stoneware) to confirm non-porcelain classification

• Document pewter lid permanence (e.g

• hinged and soldered) to avoid reclassification as separate articles under heading 6913

• Avoid common pitfall of importing with porcelain body, which shifts to 6911.10; provide firing certificates
