Import Tips
• Provide detailed photos and technical specs of edge profiles in entry docs to avoid reclassification as unfinished lumber
• Label moisture content (typically under 9%) to meet building code compliance for import clearance
• Avoid bundling with adhesives or underlayment to prevent classification as a set under 4418
