Yes, if the export of cutting boards (cutting boards) is included in the legal inspection catalog or the target market has special requirements, commodity inspection must be carried out.
I. Key factors for determining whether commodity inspection is required ‌
1 ‌Whether it is included in the legal inspection catalog ‌
According to the "Implementation Regulations of the Import and Export Commodity Inspection Law of the People's Republic of China", the "Catalogue of Import and Export Commodities that Must Be Inspected" (hereinafter referred to as the Legal Inspection Catalogue) promulgated by the General Administration of Customs is the core basis. If the HS code of the cutting board is included in the catalogue, commodity inspection must be applied.

For example, body lotions and facial masks mentioned in the search results need to be inspected because they are included in the legal inspection catalogue, and the same applies to cutting boards.
‌Target market regulatory requirements ‌
Different countries have different regulations on the materials and hygiene standards of kitchen utensils (such as the EU's strict testing of food contact materials). Even if they are not included in the Chinese legal inspection catalogue, they may need to provide a commercial inspection certificate as required by the importing country.
