Import Tips
• Document the embossing process and plastic coating thickness to distinguish from simple paper wallpapers in 4814.10
• Check for compliance with VOC emission standards; U.S. customs may require safety data for interior use products
• Avoid bundling with adhesives, as that could classify as a set under different rules
