Import Tips
• Certify 'no-added formaldehyde' status with third-party lab reports (CARB/EPA compliant) for smooth clearance
• Specify 'liner boards' vs. 'finished paneling' in invoices to maintain raw material classification
• Check for preferential tariff treatment under sustainability agreements or GSP for qualifying origins
