Import Tips
• Document the fibre content (cotton rag) and the manufacturing process to demonstrate it is felted paperboard
• Ensure the product is not coated or treated, as that would change classification
• Verify that the sheets or rolls meet Chapter Note 8 size thresholds to qualify under heading 48.05
