Import Tips
• Provide botanical species documentation (Juglans spp.) for CBP inspection to confirm subheading 4412.91.31.20 applicability
• Ensure core materials comply with US safety standards; mixed tropical/non-tropical cores are common but must be declared
• Package to prevent surface damage that could require refinishing, potentially changing surface coverage classification
