Import Tips
• Include supplier certifications for grease/moisture barrier coatings to avoid reclassification
• Label as 'nested food containers' in docs; round shape distinguishes from trays in 4823.61
• Watch for over 200g/m² paperboard; heavier may need strength verification but stays classified here
