Import Tips

• Verify the part is exclusively for furniture use (e.g

• via design features like hinge routs) to avoid reclassification as general wood articles under Chapter 44

• Provide detailed invoices specifying wood species, dimensions, and reference to originating furniture heading 9403 for proper valuation

• Ensure CITES compliance if using restricted woods like oak from certain regions; common pitfall is missing origin certificates
