Import Tips & Compliance
• Label shipments clearly as 'rough, coniferous fir' with moisture content readings to support classification
• Conduct pre-shipment inspections for squaring degree; excessive uniformity risks 4407 reclassification
• Obtain CITES permits if near-threatened Abies species to avoid customs delays
