Import Tips
• Verify bleached status and plastic coating type via lab testing to confirm >150 g/m² weight and ≥0.3 mm thickness for 4811.51.20.40 classification
• Provide mill test certificates documenting basis weight, caliper, and coating composition to avoid reclassification to thinner subheadings
