Import Tips

• Provide formaldehyde emission test results (CARB Phase 2 compliant) as bamboo flooring often faces VOC scrutiny

• Label planks clearly as 'bamboo wood flooring' to distinguish from generic bamboo products and prevent reclassification

• Avoid common error of declaring as 'lumber'; emphasize assembled joinery features in entry docs
