Import Tips
• Use calibrated scales for weight declarations; discrepancies can lead to duty recalculation or penalties
• Include mill contracts proving pulp end-use to differentiate from general timber imports
• Monitor for blue stain fungus, which doesn't affect classification but may require treatment declarations
