SITCSection 6
U.S. imports of porcelain or china tableware and kitchenware (SITC 66611) totaled $22.6M in April 2026, traded with 45 countries.
Importers of Porcelain or China Tableware and Kitchenware paid $5.7M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 25% on $22.7M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataFired at high temperatures to achieve translucency and low porosity, porcelain and china tableware occupy a distinct classification tier above earthenware and stoneware in the ceramic schedule. Dinnerware sets, serving platters, teapots, and similar kitchen-use articles of true porcelain or bone china fall here, and imports from major producing countries are subject to Section 301 tariffs that have materially affected sourcing decisions for US retailers and foodservice distributors. Buyers should verify country-of-origin marking requirements, as individual pieces in a set may require separate marking when sold at retail.

Porcelain and china are distinguished by their vitrified, translucent body achieved through high-temperature firing with kaolin-based compositions. Articles that do not meet this standard — such as earthenware or stoneware — fall under a separate SITC heading for non-porcelain ceramic tableware, which can carry different duty rates and trade-remedy exposure.
CBP requires that each article in a set be individually marked with its country of origin unless the article is too small or marking would damage it, in which case the outermost container must be marked. For mixed-origin sets — where some pieces are produced in different countries — importers must ensure each piece is marked correctly before retail sale.
