U.S. exports of Logs and Lumber (End-Use 13100) totaled $406.1M in August 2026, exported to 135 countries.
Last updated: August 2026 dataSoftwood and hardwood logs and sawn lumber represent one of the US's most commercially significant forest-product export streams, supplying construction, furniture, and industrial markets abroad. Export classification depends on species, whether the wood is rough-sawn or dressed, and moisture content — distinctions that affect both the applicable Schedule B code and the phytosanitary documentation required by the importing country. USDA APHIS regulates the export of logs and unprocessed wood for pest and disease control, and many destinations require heat-treatment or fumigation certification under ISPM 15 standards. Demand from Asian markets, particularly for high-grade softwood logs, drives significant volume in this category.

End-Use codes describe different products on the import and export sides. Cross-direction imports are not shown for this slug.
Most importing countries require wood packaging and unprocessed logs to comply with ISPM 15, which mandates heat treatment or methyl bromide fumigation and an official mark. USDA APHIS issues phytosanitary certificates for logs and lumber; exporters should confirm the destination country's specific requirements well in advance, as treatment and certification lead times can affect shipment scheduling.
Rough-sawn lumber (not further worked beyond sawing) and dressed or planed lumber fall under different Schedule B headings. The distinction matters because some trade partners apply different import duties or quota treatments to each form, and misclassification can result in delays or duty disputes at the destination port.
