• Verify basis weight exceeds 150 g/m² with lab certification to avoid reclassification to lighter weight subheadings
• Ensure coating is solely kaolin or inorganic substances; organic binders must not constitute 'other coating' per notes
• Provide mill test reports confirming <10% mechanical fibers for Chapter 48 graphic paper eligibility
