Last updated: August 2026 dataHardwood logs and roughly squared timbers of species not elsewhere specified — such as tropical hardwoods, temperate oaks, and other broadleaf trees — enter this heading when unprocessed and free of paint, stain, or preservative treatment. USDA APHIS phytosanitary controls apply at entry, and certain tropical species may be subject to CITES documentation requirements if they appear on Appendix II or III listings. Importers sourcing tropical hardwoods should verify species-level documentation, as misidentification at the genus level can trigger enforcement under the Lacey Act, which prohibits trade in illegally harvested wood.

The Lacey Act requires importers to declare the scientific name, country of harvest, and quantity of plant material on a USDA APHIS Plant and Plant Product Declaration form. Shipments of wood harvested in violation of the source country's laws — including illegal logging — are subject to seizure and civil or criminal penalties regardless of where the wood was processed.
Species such as certain rosewoods (Dalbergia spp.), big-leaf mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla), and African teak (Pericopsis elata) are listed under CITES Appendix II or III. Imports of these species require a CITES export permit from the country of origin and, in some cases, a US import permit from the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
