Import Tips
• Verify species certification as nonconiferous (e.g
• oak, not pine) with botanical documentation to avoid reclassification to coniferous codes
• Ensure moldings measure under profile limits and include detailed edge shaping descriptions in commercial invoice
• Obtain phytosanitary certificate; common pitfall is missing ISPM 15 treatment marking for kiln-dried wood
