Import Tips

• Verify CITES documentation as Dark Red Meranti is a tropical species potentially subject to export quotas from source countries like Malaysia or Indonesia

• Ensure accurate thickness measurement (≤6 mm) and species identification via lab testing to avoid misclassification

• Provide fumigation certificates to meet USDA APHIS requirements for wood imports preventing pest introduction
