Tri-Fold Product Specification Sheet from Japan
A single sheet technical data sheet for machinery, folded into three panels detailing specs, diagrams, and safety info. It qualifies for HTS 4901.10.00 as single-sheet printed matter, not a bound booklet or advertising pamphlet. The inclusion of text and diagrams keeps it from pictorial-only classifications.

Import Tips
• Document printing method (e.g
• offset or digital) as all qualify under Chapter 49 note 2
• Avoid stapling or binding, as that reclassifies to 4901.91 and may change duties
• Check for country-of-origin marking on sheets if over de minimis value
