Import Tips

Verify species certification as Populus spp. (poplar/aspen) via phytosanitary certificates to confirm HTS 4403.97.0022 classification

Obtain ISPM 15 heat treatment documentation for wood packaging; untreated pulpwood may face fumigation requirements at port

Measure log dimensions and moisture content; exceeding rough-squared limits risks reclassification to sawn lumber under 4407
