Import Tips
• Provide detailed layer composition report showing birch (Betula spp.) as outer ply and all plies ≤6mm
• Use clear or transparent coatings only; opaque finishes require reclassification—check CBP rulings
• Label origin accurately; mixing with bamboo triggers different chapter note application
