Import Tips
• Provide scientific name documentation (Juniperus virginiana) as Eastern Red Cedar is technically a juniper but classified as cedar
• Declare moisture content; green timber over 19% MC may require kiln-drying certificates for certain ports
• Avoid bundling with finished products; mixed shipments risk reclassification as Chapter 44 sets
