Import Tips

Verify density certification (0.35-0.5 g/cm³) and bitumen impregnation content via lab testing to confirm HTS 4411.94.00.10 classification

Provide manufacturer's specs confirming no mechanical working or surface covering; surface-covered variants shift to other subheadings

Include origin certificates as wood products may face Lacey Act declarations and phytosanitary requirements
