Import Tips
• Obtain botanical identification documents proving Chamaecyparis spp. to meet cedar subheading requirements
• Avoid any binder or pressure treatment; untreated status is key for this rough classification
• Check for end-jointing during import inspection, as it reclassifies to processed lumber
