Import Tips

• Document absorbency specs to prove sanitary function, avoiding misclassification as mere printed cards

• Batch test for fiber content to ensure paper/cellulose compliance; blends over 50% synthetic go to textiles

• Avoid decorative printing that dominates use, or risk chapter 49 reclassification
