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
