Import Tips & Compliance

• Limit end-jointing to straight seams only; excessive could be seen as assembly into longer boards under 4412

• Invoice must specify 'rebated for panel joining' to justify shaping purpose without implying finished goods

• Test for binder content if compressed; over 3% shifts to pellet/briquette notes if applicable
