Import Tips
• Verify the outer ply species certification as tropical wood like meranti to confirm classification under 4412.91.31.60
• Ensure formaldehyde emission compliance with EPA TSCA Title VI for plywood imports
• Provide mill test certificate documenting glue type and tropical wood origin to avoid reclassification
