Last updated: April 2026 dataAmerican black cherry (Prunus serotina) is among the most valued domestic cabinet and furniture hardwoods, yet import volumes under this heading reflect niche demand for specific grades or dimensions not readily available domestically. All sawn cherry over 6 mm thick enters under a single 10-digit line (4407940000). Canada leads supply, with Chile and Japan also present — Chile's emergence as a source reflects growing plantation cherry timber programs in South America.

The Lacey Act declaration must specify the genus and species (e.g., Prunus serotina for American black cherry, or Prunus avium for European sweet cherry). Because multiple Prunus species are commercially sawn, importers should require species-level documentation from suppliers rather than accepting genus-only identification, which could trigger a customs query.
Yes. The National Hardwood Lumber Association (NHLA) grading rules — FAS, Select, and Common grades — are the standard reference in North American trade. Imported cherry from Canada typically conforms to NHLA grades, while material from other origins may follow different national standards, requiring buyers to specify grade equivalency in purchase contracts.
