Import Tips
• Verify teak origin with CITES documentation if from wild sources to comply with endangered species regulations
• Provide detailed invoices specifying Tectona spp. wood content and office use to avoid reclassification
• Inspect for proper fumigation certificates under ISPM 15 for wooden furniture to prevent pest-related delays
