Import Tips & Compliance
• Certify filtration efficiency and basis weight; mismatches can lead to misclassification as lighter or plastic filters
• Document as unfinished media, not assembled filters, to stay in Chapter 56
• Inspect for lamination; if rubber/plastic bonding dominates, exclusion to Chapters 39/40 applies
