Import Tips
• Document the maple outer ply content exceeding specified thresholds and confirm it's laminboard construction for CBP verification
• Test surface coatings to prove transparency; opaque finishes require different classification and higher duties
• Avoid delays by pre-submitting samples if panels have unique tongue-and-groove flooring profiles
