Import Tips

• Ensure the wood is free of bark and visible signs of pests, as CBSA may require a phytosanitary certificate

• Declare the species (Prunus serotina) and the end-matching process accurately on the customs invoice

• Verify whether the goods qualify for duty-free treatment under a free trade agreement by providing a valid certificate of origin
