Import Tips

Use ISO-compliant fiber content declarations; cotton rag claims require detailed pulp origin proof

Measure and declare exact basis weight (g/m²) as small variances can reclassify to lighter headings

Ensure non-perforated and not pre-printed dominantly to stay in 4802; watch for Chapter 49 if artistic prints prevail
