USDA APHIS enforces phytosanitary import requirements for unprocessed or minimally processed wood, including requirements for heat treatment, debarking, or fumigation depending on the species and country of origin. Importers should confirm whether a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting country's national plant protection organization is required and whether the wood meets ISPM 15 or equivalent treatment standards.
Yes. The Lacey Act covers all plant products, including minimally processed wood forms. Importers must file a declaration identifying the wood species (genus and species), country of harvest, and quantity. For mixed-species lots — common in hoopwood and chipwood — species identification at the mill level is necessary to complete the declaration accurately.
