Import Tips
• Document adhesive formulation and paper weight to distinguish from pressure-sensitive tapes of 4811.41
• Include technical specs showing compliance with 'gummed or adhesive' definition versus uncoated papers
• Avoid misclassification as finished tape products under 3506 or 3919 by declaring as bulk backing material
