Import Tips
• Include botanical species verification documents as beech is a common nonconiferous wood prone to scrutiny
• Confirm no binders or treatments added, maintaining 'plain' status under chapter definitions
• Declare exact diameters (typically 6-25mm) to distinguish from larger briquette forms in other notes
