If for S-P-F mixed spruce-pine-fir if further sawn
S-P-F lumber, once sawn to thickness over 6mm, classified under specific softwood sawn wood heading.
If cross-section 15cm+ but specific statistical breakout
Statistical suffixes differentiate within 'other' coniferous rough wood categories.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain coniferous species verification from accredited labs to prevent misclassification as non-coniferous
• Document rough squaring process; over-processing risks reclassification as sawn lumber
• Check for sapwood removal compliance; incomplete stripping may trigger fumigation requirements
