Import Tips
• Confirm the plates are not coated or covered with plastics exceeding half the thickness, as this would exclude them from Chapter 48
• Provide documentation to CBSA showing the plates are made from bamboo pulp and not other paper fibers
• Check if the embossing is merely subsidiary to the primary use; if it includes printed motifs, Chapter 49 may apply
