Import Tips
• Formaldehyde emission levels must meet EPA TSCA Title VI standards; include CARB Phase 2 certification in documentation
• Measure thickness precisely as 'exceeding 9mm' determines subheading; provide manufacturer specs
• Check for moisture content labeling to avoid customs holds; typical <10% for import stability
