Import Tips

• Verify plastic coating type and weight via lab testing to confirm it excludes adhesives, avoiding reclassification to 4811.51

• Provide mill test certificates showing basis weight >115 g/m² and fiber composition to support kraftliner status if challenged

• Ensure roll width documentation exceeds 15 cm; common pitfall is mismeasuring unfolded dimensions leading to duty disputes
