A standard 4x8 foot plywood panel with a birch (Betula spp.) face ply and inner plies of mixed nonconiferous wood, each not exceeding 6mm thick, not surface covered.

Import Tips
• Verify species certification for birch (Betula spp.) face ply via documentation from supplier to confirm classification and avoid reclassification to generic plywood
• Provide detailed ply composition and thickness measurements (each ≤6mm) in entry docs; common pitfall is misstating inner ply materials leading to audits
• Declare as 'not surface-covered' accurately; transparent coatings allowed only if they don't obscure grain—include lab tests if challenged by CBP
