Import Tips
• Verify fiber content certification to confirm less than 10% mechanical fibers via lab testing for Chapter 48 compliance
• Provide mill test reports showing grammage between 40-150 g/m² and uncoated status to avoid reclassification
• Label sheets as 'drawing paper' with intended graphic use to prevent shifts to heading 4802.90 for other papers
