Import Tips
• Verify species certification as Eucalyptus spp. via phytosanitary certificates to confirm classification under 4403.98
• Obtain ISPM 15 heat treatment documentation if logs retain bark to meet fumigation requirements
• Avoid misclassification as sawn lumber (4407) by ensuring logs remain in rough, unsawn state
