Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the paper is not treated with any coating or sizing that would make it more than surface-sized, as this could affect classification
• Keep records of the fibre content to demonstrate that mechanical fibres do not exceed 10% by weight
• Declare the correct sheet dimensions, as the unfolded state is what matters for classification
