Import Tips
• Verify the paper pulp content exceeds 50% by weight to qualify under this subheading; provide lab test reports if challenged
• Include FDA registration and labeling compliance for baby products to avoid holds at entry
• Watch for misclassification as textile-based if outer layers dominate; document pulp core specs
