Import Tips
• Document coniferous species (e.g
• pine, spruce) for both outer plies and Agathis certification to meet subheading criteria
• Avoid common error of applying decorative films; transparent coatings only if grain remains visible
• Declare exact ply count and thickness; bulk shipments require proper fumigation certificates for wood products
