Import Tips
• Obtain supplier affidavits on pulping method (sulfate/soda) to affirm non-mechanical fiber compliance
• Monitor for ash content if sulfite process suspected, as high ash may route to wrapping paper codes
• Train staff on grammage tolerance; variances over 150 g/m² trigger different duty rates
