Import Tips
• Verify species identification through botanical certification to avoid misclassification into species-specific subheadings
• Provide phytosanitary certificates confirming bark stripping compliance and freedom from pests under ISPM 15 standards
• Measure moisture content; wood over 19% MC may require kiln drying declarations to prevent duty adjustments
