Import Tips
• Verify coating is solely kaolin or inorganic substances without binders that could reclassify to other subheadings
• Provide mill certificates confirming fiber content has ≤10% mechanical fibers to avoid misclassification under 4810.14
• Ensure documentation specifies 'basic paper for photographic sensitization' to distinguish from finished photo paper in 3703
