Import Tips
• Verify coating is solely kaolin or inorganic substances with no other coatings via lab testing to avoid reclassification
• Provide mill test certificates confirming weight >150 g/m² and ≤10% mechanical fibers for CBP clearance
• Watch for common pitfalls like misdeclared width under 15 cm, shifting to subheading 4810.13.10
