Import Tips
• Document glaze application and firing process to prove compliance with the HTS description's metallic oxide/salt requirements
• Ensure thickness and weight meet ornamental standards; bulky items risk scrutiny as non-ceramic under Chapter 68
• Use detailed invoices specifying 'decorative only' to distinguish from functional pottery in 6912
