Import Tips
• Verify adhesive type and activation method (water vs self-adhesive) to confirm classification under gummed paper
• Provide mill test certificates showing basis weight and dimensions to avoid misclassification as narrower rolls
• Ensure no printing dominates the primary use, or it may shift to Chapter 49
