Import Tips
• Confirm plastic coating via FTIR analysis; distinguish from varnish which may not qualify as 'covered with plastics'
• Sheets must be rectangular and uncut to size if resembling cards—avoid Chapter 4823 for loose cards
• Avoid pitfall of 4810 if coated but lightweight (<150 g/m²) or suitable for inkjet printing
