Does this apply to your product?

It likely does if you can answer yes to each of these:

  • Is it a ceramic bowl or other tableware, other than porcelain or china?
  • Is it suitable for food or drink contact?
  • Is it designed to hold food, such as popcorn?

A no to any of them can mean a different code. A licensed broker can classify your product.
