Import Tips
• Provide pulp process documentation; U.S
• Customs requires proof of ≥80% chemical sulfate fibers for kraft duty rates
• Measure grammage precisely; papers near 150 g/m² threshold often face audits
• Avoid printing motifs that could shift classification to Chapter 49 if not subsidiary to paper use
