Import Tips
• Verify fiber content lab tests to confirm ≤10% mechanical fibers, as exceeding this shifts to 4802.56
• Ensure roll width >15 cm and weight <40 g/m² with documentation like mill certificates
• Avoid misclassification as heading 4801 by confirming it's not newsprint-grade wood-containing paper
