Import Tips
• Obtain phytosanitary certificates confirming no pests like hemlock woolly adelgid, required for all coniferous logs
• Verify cross-sectional measurements exceed 15 cm to avoid reclassification to smaller dimension subheadings
• Include species documentation as 'other hemlock' to distinguish from Hem-Fir mixes under 4407.14
