Import Tips
• Verify density certification (0.35-0.5 g/cm³) with lab tests to confirm subheading eligibility and avoid misclassification
• Ensure formaldehyde emission compliance with EPA TSCA Title VI for composite wood products sold in US
• Declare as 'not surface-covered' accurately; any foil or laminate moves to different subheading
