Import Tips
• Submit impregnation certificates (e.g
• silicone content) proving functional coating, as simple surface coloring disqualifies
• Avoid bundling with adhesive labels, which could classify as sets under different headings
• Check for fluting or kraft specs inadvertently; those fall under 4804/4805
