Import Tips
• Verify species identification through botanical certificates to confirm coniferous classification and cross-section measurements
• Ensure phytosanitary certificates comply with ISPM 15 for bark-stripped wood to avoid quarantine issues
• Measure smallest cross-sectional dimension precisely; under 15cm shifts to different subheading
