Import Tips
• Declare as 'not for re-export as finished goods' to avoid anti-dumping scrutiny on tropical hardwoods
• Include production photos showing shaping process; end-jointing prevents miscoding as 4409.22.05.10 edge-only
• Monitor quota restrictions; some tropical species face volume limits under trade agreements
