Import Tips
• Verify wood species origin documentation to comply with Lacey Act requirements for wood imports
• Ensure pins meet 'advanced in condition' criteria through sanding or grooving to avoid reclassification to basic dowels
• Provide detailed invoices specifying dimensions and surface treatment to prevent customs valuation disputes
