Import Tips
• Obtain fumigation certificates (IPPC/ISPM 15) if shipping in wooden packaging to meet phytosanitary requirements
• Document planing/sanding processes to distinguish from thicker lumber imports
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring thickness; measure multiple sheets for customs verification
