• Provide assembly diagrams showing plywood as cabinet component if questioned on end-use classification

• Use calibrated tools for final dimension check; even slight exceedance requires re-invoicing to correct subheading

• Declare accurate glue content; panels over certain resin levels may face chemical import restrictions
