HS code 69072314 – Other, glazed
This HS code encompasses small, glazed ceramic tiles primarily designed for decorative or functional surfaces such as walls, hearths, or light-traffic paving, distinguished by their high water absorption properties. Under Vietnam’s 2026 tariff schedule: a preferential (MFN) import duty of 45%, VAT of 8/10 and measured in “m2”.
What is HS code 69072314?
These ceramic products are specifically glazed tiles intended for applications like flags, paving, hearths, or walls. They are characterized by a water absorption coefficient exceeding 10% by weight, indicating a relatively porous structure, and possess a small surface area where the largest face can be enclosed within a square with sides less than 7 cm. This classification places them within Chapter 69, which covers various ceramic articles, and specifically under heading 6907 for ceramic tiles and similar products.
For importers, precise classification of these tiles often depends on verifying their technical specifications, particularly the water absorption coefficient and exact dimensions. It is crucial to ensure that accompanying documentation, such as product data sheets or test reports, clearly states these parameters to differentiate them from tiles with lower water absorption or larger dimensions, which fall under other subheadings. Additionally, confirming the presence of a glaze is essential, as unglazed tiles would be classified differently within the same heading.
