Import Tips
• Ensure the cartons are imported as unprinted or minimally printed sheets; if printed with motifs not subsidiary to their use, they may fall under Chapter 49
• Verify the kaolin coating is the only coating, as additional plastic or other coatings could shift classification
• Keep records of the fibre content and coating weight to support the tariff classification if questioned by CBSA
