Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'unsensitized base paper' to prevent Customs confusing with finished photo paper under Chapter 37
• Test and document Mullen burst or basis weight if challenged, as weight >150 g/m² shifts to other 4810.14 subheads
• Avoid mixing with coated inkjet paper; graphic purpose but photo-specific use locks this subheading
