Import Tips
• Confirm coating is a qualifying 'absorbent or reflecting layer' per chapter notes to prevent misclassification as finished articles
• Use precise measurements in invoices; customs may inspect for thickness compliance (5-10mm) and reject under/over sizes
• Avoid bulk packaging that implies further processing; declare as sheets for retail glazing use
