Import Tips
• Verify all plies are wood sheets ≤6mm thick with at least one outer ply nonconiferous; provide mill certificates for species confirmation
• Measure dimensions precisely before shipment as exceeding 3.6mm/1.2m/2.2m shifts to other subheadings; use ISPM-15 compliant packaging
• Declare exact surface treatment—clear coatings allowed only if grain remains visible; common pitfall is misclassifying printed surfaces
