Import Tips
• Confirm the paper's dimensions meet the roll or sheet size criteria of chapter note 8, as smaller sizes may fall under other headings
• Keep documentation on the coating composition to demonstrate it is self-copy paper, not sensitised paper of Chapter 37
• If the paper is printed with medical forms, check whether the printing is subsidiary to the self-copy function to retain classification here
