Import Tips

Verify tape width ≤5cm and length ≤55m with manufacturer specs to confirm HTS 3919.10.20.30 classification; exceeding limits shifts to other subheadings

Include lab test reports for plastic composition (e.g

acetate content >95%) and adhesive type to avoid reclassification as Chapter 35 products

Label rolls clearly with dimensions, material, and 'self-adhesive' to prevent customs holds; common pitfall is mismeasuring width including core
