Import Tips
• Include detailed species identification and origin certificates for mahogany to comply with Lacey Act declarations
• Ensure no metal fasteners are present, as assembled panels may classify under Chapter 94 furniture headings
• Label panels clearly with dimensions and wood content to facilitate CBP inspection and avoid bulk packing penalties
