Import Tips
• Obtain phytosanitary certificate confirming no pests or diseases, as required for coniferous lumber under ISPM 15
• Declare exact species as Western red cedar on entry documents to avoid reclassification to general coniferous codes
• Verify moisture content documentation if kiln-dried to prevent issues with 'not treated' status
