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
