Import Tips

• Declare exact grammage with supplier certificates; customs may weigh samples to confirm ≥225 g/m²

• Avoid any surface treatment that could be seen as coating, risking shift to chapter 48 coated headings

• Label as 'uncoated paperboard' and provide pulp origin details to meet HTS specificity
