Import Tips
• 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
