Import Tips
• Provide detailed profile drawings and photos to CBP for verification of continuous shaping requirement
• Label shipments clearly with wood species and country of origin to facilitate tropical wood scrutiny
• Avoid bundling with metal fasteners, as that could reclassify as a Chapter 44 excluded item
