Import Tips
• Provide certificates of analysis showing at least 50% cellulose content to confirm paper classification
• Avoid marketing as 'reusable' which could shift it to textile headings; emphasize single-use sanitary nature
• Check width restrictions if supplied in rolls, though cut-to-shape apparel typically complies
