Import Tips
• Provide grading certificates (e.g
• clear vs knotty) to support valuation and ensure matching 4409 shaping requirements
• Label shipments explicitly as 'resawn bevel siding - Western red cedar' to prevent CBP misclassification to general lumber
• Monitor CITES restrictions; Western red cedar is unregulated but confirm via USFWS for endangered species mix-ups
