Import Tips

• Use ISO 2471 opacity certifications to validate bible paper quality claims during customs review

• Package rolls to prevent damage; creasing can lead to rejection as unfit for printing use

• Cross-check against Chapter 49 if any printing motifs are pre-applied, as that changes classification
