Import Tips

Verify CITES documentation for plantation-harvested teak to confirm sustainable sourcing and avoid import delays under US wildlife regulations

Label furniture clearly with material composition (100% teak) and country of origin to meet FTC and CBP labeling requirements

Inspect for kiln-drying certificates to prevent pest issues; common pitfall is fumigation non-compliance leading to quarantines
