Import Tips
• Verify CITES documentation if walnut logs originated from regulated sources; not typically required for processed veneer but check origin
• Ensure accurate species labeling as Juglans spp. to avoid reclassification; provide mill certificates
• Inspect for proper thickness measurement (≤6mm) during customs to prevent duty disputes
