Import Tips
• Verify certification of plantation-harvested teak with CITES documentation to avoid misclassification as wild teak under different subheadings
• Ensure wooden frame construction is documented, as upholstered seats shift to 9401.69.41 or Chapter 94 exclusions
• Check for Lacey Act compliance; declare wood origin accurately to prevent penalties for false declarations
