Import Tips
• Verify fiber content certification showing <10% mechanical/chemi-mechanical fibers to avoid reclassification under 4802.54
• Obtain supplier specs confirming weight (40-150 g/m²) and intended use for photographic sensitization; retain for CBP review
• Avoid common pitfall of importing pre-sensitized paper, which shifts to HTS 3703; declare as 'basic paper to be sensitized'
