Import Tips
• Verify species certification as Douglas fir via botanical identification to avoid misclassification to other coniferous codes
• Ensure thickness documentation shows ≤6mm; exceeding this shifts to thicker lumber headings
• Provide evidence of veneering/plywood end-use if customs questions primary classification
