Import Tips

Verify species certification as nonconiferous (e.g

oak) with phytosanitary certificates to avoid reclassification to coniferous codes

Ensure documentation proves no assembly and shaping is only along edges/faces, not fully machined into finished products

Check for end-jointing; if present, confirm it doesn't constitute assembly per HTS notes to prevent misclassification
