Import Tips
• Verify wood is nonconiferous (e.g
• oak, maple) via botanical certification to avoid reclassification to coniferous codes
• Obtain phytosanitary certificate confirming heat treatment (ISPM 15) to meet USDA APHIS requirements for firewood imports
• Declare moisture content under 20% to qualify as seasoned fuel wood; high moisture may trigger pest risk scrutiny
