Import Tips
• Maintain roll form during import; cutting to sheets risks reclassification under chapter notes excluding cut sizes from 4820
• Document compliance with FDA food contact standards, as beverage base stock requires food-grade certification
• Specify 'base stock' in commercial invoices to distinguish from general packaging papers
