Flexible Magnetic Sheet for Crafts from Japan
A thin, bendable sheet made from ferrite powder embedded in a flexible polymer matrix, designed to be magnetized for use in craft projects like fridge magnets. It falls under HTS 8505.19.10.00 as a flexible magnet intended to become a permanent magnet after magnetization. These sheets are cuttable and printable for custom applications.

Import Tips
• Verify the magnet is flexible (bends without breaking) and composed of ferrite in polymer to meet 8505.19.10.00 criteria; rigid versions classify differently
• Include material composition certificates showing permanent magnet properties post-magnetization to avoid reclassification
