Import Tips

Include technical drawings showing mesh size and linking devices to prove papermaking application

Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'wire cloth' which could misclassify under Chapter 73 metal products

Obtain supplier affidavits confirming weight <650 g/m² and endless/fitted design for customs
