Import Tips
• Provide cross-section diagrams proving 'threshold function' vs generic molding to avoid 4409 reclassification
• Ensure kiln-dried certification (<12% moisture) with phytosanitary certificate for non-coniferous hardwoods
• Separate thresholds from door sets in documentation; assembled units go to 4418.40
