Import Tips & Compliance

• Ensure the plywood is free of bark and pests, as the CBSA enforces Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) requirements on wood packaging and products

• Declare the exact thickness and species composition, as these affect the tariff classification

• Keep supplier documentation showing the coniferous nature of the outer plies to expedite clearance
