Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'India/bible paper' with grammage and coating details to expedite CBP review
• Avoid common pitfall of exceeding 150 g/m², which shifts to 4810.19.1900; test samples rigorously
• Include end-use declarations for printing to prevent misclassification as packaging material
