Import Tips

• Verify exact thickness measurement as classifications split at 5mm and 9mm thresholds; provide caliper certifications

• Include mill test reports confirming density between 0.45-0.80 g/cm³ and resin content for Customs verification

• Avoid misclassification as particleboard (4411.11) by demonstrating uniform fiber structure via samples
