Import Tips
• Provide botanical verification for oak species; common misclassification as softwood if undocumented
• Declare exact ply count and thickness; customs may sample to confirm ≤6mm per ply
• Transparent coatings must be documented as non-pigmented to qualify under 'clear or transparent' provision
