Import Tips
• Verify CITES documentation if applicable, though cherry (Prunus spp.) is generally not restricted; provide species certificate
• Ensure thickness ≤6mm and confirm lengthwise slicing/peeling process via mill certificates to avoid reclassification
• Label with exact wood species and origin to comply with Lacey Act declarations for wood imports
