Import Tips
• Include botanical species identification (Tectona grandis) and harvest certificates for teak to meet Lacey Act declarations
• Label shipments clearly as 'molded trim, not assembled' to prevent misclassification as finished woodwork
• Test for formaldehyde emissions if used in interior applications; ensure compliance with TSCA Title VI
