Import Tips
• Use ISPM-15 compliant fumigation certs for wooden products to meet phytosanitary import requirements
• Avoid bundling with tools or hardware to prevent set classification under different headings
• Document moisture content under 20% to confirm kiln-dried status for plain wood imports
