Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the tray is not printed with motifs that are more than subsidiary to its primary use, as this could shift classification to Chapter 49
• Verify the dimensions meet the cut-to-size criteria; if in rolls or sheets exceeding 36 cm in width, other headings may apply
• Keep supplier documentation on fibre content to support classification
