Import Tips
• Ensure ISPM 15 heat treatment certification (IPPC stamp) on all wooden pallets to avoid fumigation delays at ports
• Provide detailed packing lists specifying wood species and dimensions to prevent misclassification as finished furniture
• Check for bark-free compliance; residual bark can lead to pest inspections and quarantines
