Import Tips

• Submit fiber analysis reports from accredited labs proving ≥25% cotton to prevent disputes at customs

• Include grammage test results showing 40-150 g/m²; discrepancies can lead to higher duties under other weights

• Label as 'uncoated graphic paper' and ensure no printing that dominates use, avoiding Chapter 49 shift
