Last updated: April 2026 dataPorcelain and china tableware and kitchenware is one of the most granularly subdivided ceramic headings in the US tariff schedule, with tariff lines differentiated by end-use (hotel/restaurant versus household), material grade (bone china versus other porcelain), and aggregate value per dozen pieces or per 12-piece set. China dominates US import supply by a wide margin, with France, Germany, and the United Kingdom representing premium European heritage brands. The value-based breakpoints embedded in lines such as 6911101500, 6911102500, and the 6911103xxx series mean that invoice pricing must be carefully documented to ensure correct classification.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The US tariff lines for bone china tableware break at specific aggregate values per dozen pieces. Importers should retain commercial invoices that clearly state the per-dozen or per-12-piece-set price, along with packing lists that identify set composition. Discrepancies between invoice values and declared classification thresholds are a common audit trigger; a licensed customs broker can help structure documentation to withstand CBP review.
The US schedule explicitly separates hotel, restaurant, and institutional ware (line 6911101000) from household ware across multiple value tiers. The distinction generally turns on commercial durability specifications, packaging, and the buyer's end-use sector. Goods sold in bulk to foodservice distributors are typically classified as hotel/restaurant ware, while retail-packaged sets for home use fall under the household ware lines.
