Import Tips & Compliance

Use CITES documentation if any ply species are restricted (e.g

certain oak); declare accurately to avoid delays

Label as 'plywood for flooring' not 'finished floor' to prevent shift to higher-duty 4418 categories

Test for moisture content (<12%) as flooring standard; high moisture risks warping claims at entry
