Import Tips
• Confirm 'plastic covered' vs adhesive only; adhesives exclude from 4811.5x, moving to 4811.90
• Large-scale importers should pre-apply for binding ruling on coating type to prevent CBP disputes
• Check for surface printing; if motifs are primary, goods shift to Chapter 49 printed matter
