Import Tips
• Verify wood species and ensure sawn dimensions meet picket specifications to avoid reclassification as dimension lumber under 4407
• Obtain phytosanitary certificates proving heat treatment (ISPM 15) for wooden fencing components to clear customs
• Label bundles clearly with HTS code, dimensions, and treatment markings to prevent inspection delays
