Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm the resin coating is not a plastic layer exceeding half the thickness, which would exclude it from Chapter 48
• Declare the roll dimensions accurately; rolls ≤36 cm wide may fall under different headings
• Provide fiber analysis reports to substantiate the ≤10% mechanical content
