6907.23.90 - Other

This HTS subheading, 6907.23.90, pertains to "Other" ceramic flags, paving, hearth, or wall tiles that are glazed and absorb more than 10% of their weight in water. These tiles are characterized by their inherent porosity and are further distinguished by their glazing, which provides a decorative and protective surface finish. This category encompasses a broad range of such ceramic tiling products not specifically defined in more granular subheadings.

It is crucial to differentiate this category from its siblings. For instance, tiles with a largest surface area that can be enclosed in a square with a side of less than 7 cm would fall under a different, more specific subheading. The "Other" designation here implies that while these tiles meet the general criteria of being glazed, porous, and intended for flags, paving, hearths, or walls, they do not fit into any more narrowly defined classifications within this part of the tariff schedule.

Within this "Other" category, further subdivision exists to provide greater specificity. Subheading 6907.23.90.11 addresses tiles where the largest surface area is capable of being enclosed in a square with a side of 30 cm or less. Conversely, subheading 6907.23.90.51, which this current node "6907.23.90" represents, covers all remaining tiles that meet the broader criteria of glazed, porous, and intended for flags, paving, hearths, or walls, but do not fall under the size specification of the preceding subheading. This allows for the classification of larger format or irregularly shaped porous, glazed ceramic tiles not otherwise specified.
