Import Tips
• Provide material safety data sheets (MSDS) detailing acrylic polymer content and adhesive thickness
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'foam rubber' which would incorrectly shift to Chapter 40
• Ensure invoices specify 'self-adhesive' and dimensions to distinguish from bulk foam sheets
