Ceramics
Ceramic products typically fall in HS chapter 69. The heading can differ for tableware, sanitary ware or tiles.
Packing
Cushioning, separated layers and clear fragile marks help limit breakage. Plan container stuffing around weight and volume.
Documents and certifications
A typical set includes the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or air waybill, and a certificate of origin. If a preference scheme applies you may need origin evidence such as REX or the form the destination specifies.
Some destinations set chemical limits or labelling rules for food-contact ceramics. Confirm these with the supplier before production.
Shipping modes
Heavy ceramics usually move by sea as FCL to reduce handling. For smaller lots compare LCL, or courier or air for samples.
