Import Tips
• Specify UV-oil finish doesn't penetrate substrate layers; surface treatments shouldn't affect multilayer classification
• Provide installation instructions confirming flooring end-use to distinguish from wall panel alternatives
• Watch for micro-bevel edge treatments; excessive profiling may trigger 'shaped wood' reclassification under 4407
