Import Tips

• Confirm that the screens are not attached to floors or walls, as this could reclassify them as builders' joinery under 4418

• If the cedar is aromatic, ensure it does not contain natural oils that require special handling documentation

• Declare the screens as finished decorative articles to benefit from the 'other' classification
