Import Tips & Compliance

• Secure CITES Appendix II permits for Swietenia mahogany species with export and import documentation

• Provide grading certificates (e.g

• AA grade face) to justify declared value against undervaluation scrutiny

• Avoid bundling hardware; loose plywood stays in 4412, assembled furniture moves to Chapter 94
