Import Tips
• Verify that the MDF molding is not considered an article of heading 44.18 (builders' joinery) or other headings, as this would exclude it from heading 44.11
• Ensure the base thickness is within the 5-9mm range and document this for CBSA
• If the molding is profiled, confirm it is not further worked beyond the scope of heading 44.11
