Import Tips
• Verify coating is solely kaolin or inorganic substances with no other coatings to avoid reclassification under 4810.29
• Provide documentation confirming cards are unpunched and designed specifically for punchcard machines, not general printing
• Ensure weight and dimensions match rectangular sheets for punchcard use; strips must be for machine feeding
