Import Tips
• Verify coating is solely kaolin or inorganic substances on one side; dual coatings shift to other subheadings
• Provide mill test certificates confirming weight >150 g/m² and <10% mechanical fibers for proper classification
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as two-side coated, which could lead to duty re-assessment
