Import Tips
• Mahogany often requires CITES Appendix II permits; include export documentation from supplier country
• Measure ply thickness precisely—exceeding 6mm shifts classification and duty rates significantly
• Label species accurately to avoid reclassification as generic hardwood plywood under 4412.32
