Import Tips
• Verify each ply thickness does not exceed 6mm and confirm both outer plies are coniferous wood species via supplier certification
• Provide fumigation certificate (ISPM 15) if required for wooden packaging; declare wood origin to avoid pests/quarantine issues
• Avoid misclassification as bamboo plywood (excluded) or surface-covered panels which shift to different subheadings
