Import Tips
• Verify the face ply species certification as birch (Betula spp.) through botanical documentation to confirm nonconiferous classification
• Ensure all plies ≤6mm thick and provide mill test reports showing no opaque surface coverings that obscure grain
• Declare as 'wood flooring' explicitly; common pitfall is classifying as general plywood, triggering different duties
