Import Tips & Compliance

• Differentiate from interleaved packs in 4818.10; loose sheets stay in 4811 but confirm no sanitary packaging

• Test embossing as 'surface-decorated' and maintain weight docs; avoid contamination claims

• Declare absorbency treatments carefully to prevent chemical impregnation reclass to other 4811 subs
