Import Tips
• Verify each ply thickness ≤6mm and outer ply species documentation to confirm nonconiferous classification under 4412.34
• Provide mill certificates proving no surface covering obscures wood grain; common pitfall is mislabeling as finished floor
• Ensure 'wood flooring' intent via installation guides; bulk shipments may need reclassification if not retail-ready
