Import Tips
• Verify thickness certification does not exceed 5mm; provide lab test reports if requested by CBP
• Include formaldehyde emission documentation (CARB Phase 2 or TSCA Title VI) for U.S. compliance
• Avoid misclassification as plywood by confirming fiberboard structure, not layered veneers exceeding 25% thickness
