Import Tips
• Verify filament reinforcement (e.g
• glass or polyester) and tape width ≤20 cm to confirm classification under 3919.10.20.10; measure precisely to avoid reclassification
• Provide lab test reports on plastic composition (e.g
• BOPP base) and adhesive type for CBP review; ensure 'self-adhesive' labeling on invoices
