A4 Coated Matte Inkjet Paper 120gsm

This is high-quality coated paper in A4 sheets (210x297mm), weighing 120 g/m², designed for inkjet printing with a matte finish on both sides using kaolin coating. It contains no mechanical fibers, making it suitable for writing, printing, and graphic purposes, classified under 4810.14.19.00 due to its sheet size (one side ≤435mm, other ≤297mm, with one >360mm? Wait, A4 is 210x297 - 297>150 but 210<360, but per hierarchy it's for sheets where one side >360 and other >150, but 'Other' catches standard office sizes).

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify fiber content lab report to confirm <10% mechanical fibers, as this determines chapter 48 subheading eligibility

Measure unfolded sheet dimensions precisely; must fit 435mm x 297mm max with specific side exceedances for this subheading

Include coating composition certificate (kaolin/inorganic only, no other coatings) to avoid reclassification to 4811
