Import Tips
• Obtain teak sustainability certifications like FSC to facilitate customs clearance and avoid Lacey Act violations
• Document sidelights as integral door components rather than separate windows to prevent reclassification
• Test for marine-grade treatments; chemical preservatives may trigger EPA import notifications
