Import Tips & Compliance

Verify grammage (40-150 g/m²) and sheet dimensions (≤435x297 mm) via lab testing to confirm classification

Provide mill certificates showing fiber content (non-mechanical >90%) to avoid reclassification to 4802.54

Ensure no perforations or coatings, as these shift to 4802.55 or chapter 48 printed articles
