Import Tips
• Verify species identification certificates for nonconiferous wood like oak to confirm classification and comply with Lacey Act requirements
• Ensure edge profiles (tongue/groove) are documented in commercial invoices to distinguish from sawn lumber under 4407
• Check for CITES restrictions if using tropical hardwoods; common pitfalls include mislabeling as coniferous
