Import Tips
• Confirm cedar is coniferous (e.g
• Western red cedar) via CITES documentation if applicable, preventing misclassification
• Ship in bulk packs without retail packaging to stay in 4409, avoiding 4421 retail goods
• Monitor moisture content logs to ensure under 15% for stability claims during import
