Import Tips & Compliance
• Test and document Mullen burst strength if questioned, though not required; ensures quality claims match specs
• Label clearly as 'coated on one/both sides with kaolin, no other coatings' to distinguish from plastic-coated papers
• Avoid printing motifs that dominate primary use, as that would shift to Chapter 49 per chapter notes
