Cotton Fiber Content A4 Printing Paper

Premium A4-sized sheets of coated paper containing 25% or more cotton fiber by weight, designed for high-quality writing, printing, and graphic purposes. The kaolin coating on one or both sides enhances ink receptivity and surface smoothness, while the cotton content provides superior absorbency and texture. Classified under HTS 4810.14.70.20 due to its sheet dimensions (≤435mm x ≤297mm), cotton fiber percentage, and lack of mechanical process fibers exceeding 10%.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥25% cotton, as customs may require certificates of analysis for classification

Ensure sheets are measured in unfolded state and meet exact size limits (≤435mm x ≤297mm) to avoid reclassification to rolls or larger sheets

Provide documentation proving no more than 10% mechanical/chemi-mechanical fibers to stay within the subheading
