Import Tips & Compliance

Verify density certification (0.5-0.8 g/cm³) and confirm no paint, laminate or veneer coating beyond oil treatment via lab testing if needed

Include mill test reports showing wood fiber composition and resin content under CBP documentation requirements

Avoid misclassification as particleboard (4410) by ensuring uniform fiber structure, not wood particles
