Import Tips
• Label as 'other coniferous' accurately; Hem-Fir mixes don't qualify for specific S-P-F or Hem-Fir sawn codes in rough state
• Provide heat treatment certificates if bark residue present to satisfy pest regulations
• Weigh shipments accurately; volumetric measurements help verify cross-sectional compliance
