Import Tips
• Confirm the sheets are uncoated and exceed 36 cm on one side and 15 cm on the other, as per chapter note 8
• Provide evidence of the paper's thermal uniformity and intended use as a base for heat-sensitive applications
• Be prepared to demonstrate that the calendered finish is not a coating, which would alter classification
