Import Tips
• Label with precise dimensions and profiles; customs may measure to verify end-shaping dominance over edge work
• Fumigate per ISPM 15 if not kiln-dried; attach treatment certificates to avoid quarantines
• Avoid bundling into sets that mimic assemblies, which could shift to 4418 classification
