Import Tips & Compliance
• Declare exact sheet dimensions unfolded and coating coverage to prevent shifts to smaller size subheadings like 4811.59.20
• Include FDA compliance certs if for food contact, as PE coatings must meet indirect additive regs
• Avoid common error of classifying as printed if surface decoration is minor; printing motifs trigger Chapter 49 if primary
