Import Tips

• Include lab tests proving combustibility and thinness (typically 12-20 gsm) specific to cigarettes to distinguish from wrapping papers

• Avoid bulk packaging that could be seen as general tissue; maintain roll form documentation

• Check for anti-dumping duties on cigarette paper from certain origins like Brazil or Indonesia
