Import Tips
• Declare the complete set together to maintain 'news ink' classification; separate colors risk reclassification
• Provide press compatibility certification (e.g
• for Heidelberg or MAN presses) to support newsprint end-use
• Check for lead content restrictions; many news inks now use soy-based alternatives to meet environmental standards
