Import Tips
• Provide chemical treatment invoices and lab reports specifying preservative type and concentration
• Check for kiln-drying status; if dried below certain moisture, it may shift to sawn lumber categories
• Label shipments clearly as 'treated rough wood' to prevent customs disputes on processing level
