Import Tips
• Verify fiber composition certificate showing at least 80% sulfate or soda wood fibers to confirm kraftliner classification
• Provide Mullen burst test results matching subheading requirements; failure leads to reclassification
• Declare exact grammage and machine-glazed finish accurately to avoid penalties under uncoated kraft paper headings
