Import Tips
• Verify stoneware classification via ASTM C373 water absorption test (≤3% required) to avoid reclassification as earthenware
• Provide firing temperature documentation (>800°C) to confirm Chapter 69 eligibility and prevent exclusion
• Label material composition accurately; mislabeling as porcelain can trigger audits and delays
