Import Tips & Compliance

• Include bills of materials showing rough state progression to finished furniture to maintain classification

• Monitor binder content if any compression applied; over 3% shifts to pellet headings

• Use volumetric measurements in entries; weight-based may trigger fuel wood scrutiny
