Import Tips
• Include grammage certificates showing >150 g/m² to differentiate from lighter interlinings in 5603.13
• Specify coating agent (e.g
• non-plastic resins) in invoices to comply with 'other than plastics/rubber' requirement
• Avoid bulk packaging that could imply industrial parts; retail-ready rolls prevent reclass to Chapter 59
