Import Tips
• Verify species certification as Betula spp. (birch) via phytosanitary certificates to meet 4403 requirements and avoid reclassification
• Measure and document smallest cross-sectional dimension (must exceed 15 cm) with photos/measurements to confirm HTS 4403.95.01.30 eligibility
• Ensure bark/sapwood removal complies with 'roughly squared' exclusions; excessive processing risks shifting to Chapter 44 sawn wood headings
