Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify polymer composition meets 95% ethylene monomer requirement per subheading notes to avoid reclassification

• Provide detailed dimension measurements on invoices to confirm no side exceeds 75 mm

• Ensure bags are not chemically modified beyond basic extrusion to stay in this specific subheading
