Import Tips

• Verify sheet dimensions exceed 36 cm x 15 cm unfolded and confirm kaolin coating with no binders or other substances via lab testing

• Provide mill test certificates detailing basis weight, coating type, and burst strength to avoid reclassification

• Label shipments clearly as 'coated paperboard for folding cartons' to prevent customs delays from misinterpretation as printed packaging
