Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm moisture content below 15% with supplier certificates to prevent mold issues during import inspection
• Label clearly as 'new staves for tight cooperage' to distinguish from loose hoops or heads under same subheading
• Check for ISPM-15 compliance if staves were bundled for shipping; non-compliant wood faces fumigation delays
