Import Tips
• Document Mullen burst or basis weight to confirm ≤150 g/m²; mismatches lead to duty recalculation
• Label clearly as 'basic paper for sensitization' to distinguish from finished photo paper
• Beware reclassification if surface decoration (e.g
• heavy tinting) is deemed primary use per Chapter notes
