Import Tips

• Measure width accurately; products ≤15 cm wide may classify under heading 4802 as narrow kraft paper

• Test for chemical sulfate fiber content to prevent misclassification as non-kraft under 4805

• Declare in rolls or sheets explicitly; cut-to-size cards could go to 4823 if perforated
