Import Tips & Compliance

Include supplier specs on fiber sourcing; pitfall is assuming all printing paper is 4802.56 without mechanical content check

Declare if in rolls or sheets accurately, as format affects potential reclass to other subheadings

For recycled blends, ensure mechanical pulp exceeds 10% threshold via testing to avoid 4802.69.40
