Import Tips
• Submit process flow documentation detailing chemical treatments to distinguish from mechanical newsprint pulp
• Test for ink removal efficiency and fiber length to meet quality standards during import inspection
• Label shipments clearly as 'chemical pulp' to avoid confusion with baled waste paper under other codes
