HTS heading 6907 is a broad product category for certain ceramic construction and surface-finishing products. It generally covers ceramic flags and paving products, hearth tiles, wall tiles, ceramic mosaic cubes and similar small pieces, whether or not mounted on a backing, plus other finishing ceramics. The heading groups products by their physical use and ceramic nature; it is not, by itself, the final tariff classification.
To reach the correct 8-digit HTS code, start with the product’s material and characteristics, then narrow by the type of item and its intended use. Check details such as whether it is a tile, paving or hearth product, wall covering, mosaic piece, or another finishing ceramic; whether it is glazed or unglazed; and any dimensions, composition, or other description used in the current HTS. The complete classification may also depend on the legal notes and wording of the specific subheadings, so unusual products may require customs-broker review.
What to check
- Describe the product precisely: ceramic composition, dimensions, shape, surface finish, and whether it is mounted on a backing.
- Confirm the product’s primary use—floor or paving, hearth, wall, mosaic, or another finishing application—rather than relying only on a marketing name.
- Compare the product’s technical specifications with the wording of each applicable 8-digit subheading and its legal notes.
- Check whether the HTS distinguishes glazed from unglazed goods, or uses other material, construction, or size distinctions.
- Keep product literature, photographs, samples, and supplier specifications supporting the classification; request broker or customs advice when the wording is unclear.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
