Import Tips
• Even if treated, ensure declaration specifies 'in the rough'; chemical treatment doesn't change rough classification if not squared
• Include fumigation/treatment certificates; US Customs requires proof against pests for all coniferous imports
• Measure cross-section precisely at thinnest point—under 15 cm shifts to general pine rough wood subheading
