Import Tips
• Verify Mullen burst index certification from supplier to confirm ≥2 kPa·m²/g as per subheading note for testliner
• Provide lab test reports on fiber composition showing mainly recovered pulp to avoid reclassification to virgin fiber headings
• Check roll weight and g/m² precisely; weights over 15 g/m² shift to other subheadings like 4805.24.40
