Import Tips
• Verify moisture content is below 19% and document gluing process to confirm classification as edge-glued lumber, not dimensional lumber
• Provide mill certificates specifying species (e.g
• Pinus spp.) and ensure no prohibited treatments like arsenic-based preservatives
• Check for Lacey Act compliance with detailed harvest documentation to avoid delays at customs
