Obtain CITES documentation if applicable, though yellow cedar is not typically restricted; verify species with botanical certification

Ensure proper fumigation certificates for coniferous wood to comply with phytosanitary regulations

Declare exact dimensions and moisture content to avoid misclassification as finger-jointed or kiln-dried
