Import Tips
• Provide detailed processing records (planing, sanding) to confirm veneering grade under 4408 requirements
• Label shipments with exact thickness and 'for plywood veneering' to distinguish from solid wood imports
• Check for ISPM 15 compliance if pallets contain wood to avoid fumigation delays
