Import Tips
• Provide lab test reports certifying at least 25% cotton fiber by weight to verify classification under 4802.55.70.20
• Confirm paper weighs 40-150 g/m² and lacks >10% mechanical fibers via mill certificates to avoid reclassification
• Avoid perforation or punch-card features, as they may shift to other headings; declare exact roll dimensions accurately
