Import Tips
• Conduct species verification via botanical testing if mixed coniferous loads to ensure correct subheading
• Avoid bark residue exceeding minimal levels; presence of bark may trigger additional fumigation requirements
• Prepare volume measurements in cubic meters as customs often values pulpwood by bulk rather than piece count
