Last updated: July 2026 dataSubject to Section 301 tariffs for shipments of Chinese origin, worked granite is one of the more trade-remedy-sensitive categories in the natural stone chapter. Brazil and India are the leading US suppliers, and the US tariff schedule is unusually detailed, with lines differentiated by whether the piece is cut to size, by thickness thresholds (up to 1.5 cm, 1.5–7.5 cm, over 7.5 cm), and by end use — including a dedicated line for monuments, bases, and markers (6802930035). Countertop slabs, paving sets, and cemetery monuments all route through this heading, and thickness measurement at entry is a recurring classification issue for slabs near the 1.5 cm and 7.5 cm breakpoints.

CBP applies the actual measured thickness of the article as imported. For slabs near the 1.5 cm or 7.5 cm thresholds, importers should ensure commercial invoices and packing lists state the actual thickness in centimeters, and be prepared for physical measurement at the port. Nominal or nominal-range descriptions are insufficient if the piece is near a breakpoint.
Yes. Granite cut to specific countertop dimensions with finished edges and surfaces is classified as cut-to-size worked granite, routing to the appropriate thickness-based line within 6802.93. Unfinished slabs that have only been sawn flat without further working fall under the simply-cut provisions of 6802.23. The distinction affects both the applicable tariff line and, for Chinese-origin goods, the scope of Section 301 exposure.
