Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain ISPM 15-compliant fumigation certificates to prevent pest introduction, as rough wood is high-risk
• Verify species identification via botanical documentation to avoid misclassification under 4403.25
• Ensure logs are not sawn beyond rough squaring to maintain 4403 classification; measure cross-sections on entry
