Import Tips
• Species identification critical; yellow birch differs visually from white birch - include botanical verification
• Specify end-use as 'architectural veneer' on commercial invoice to guide Customs classification
• Consider anti-dumping duties if sourced from certain countries; check current Commerce Dept. orders
