Import Tips
• Document the alphabetical indexing and contact fields to confirm it's an address book, not a general notebook
• Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring it's not marketed as a planner with excessive calendars, which could shift classification
• Label fiber content if paperboard covers exceed certain thresholds for accurate duty assessment
