Import Tips
• Test for formaldehyde emissions to meet TSCA Title VI standards; retain CARB Phase 2 certification
• Declare exact face ply species in entry docs; walnut misidentification common pitfall leading to audits
• Ensure no metal fasteners or Chapter 82 materials that could shift classification
