Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain formaldehyde emission test reports if using interior-grade adhesives to meet TSCA Title VI standards
• Declare exact tropical species percentage; minor non-tropical outer plies could reclassify the entire panel
• Use proper ISPM-15 compliant pallets for shipping to prevent phytosanitary rejections at port
