Import Tips
• Verify the forms are bound or in continuous sets to qualify as manifold forms; loose sheets fall under heading 4820 note exclusion
• Include detailed commercial invoices specifying part count and carbonless coating to avoid reclassification as printed matter in chapter 49
• Check for any pre-printed motifs that could be deemed primary, potentially shifting to chapter 49 if not subsidiary to form use
