Last updated: August 2026 dataSoftwood logs and roughly squared timbers — including species such as pine, spruce, fir, and larch — fall here when stripped of bark or sapwood but not treated with paint, stain, or preservative. USDA APHIS phytosanitary requirements govern the entry of unprocessed coniferous wood, and importers must present a phytosanitary certificate to address bark-beetle and other pest-risk concerns. The category is a primary upstream input for sawmills and pulp operations, making it sensitive to both harvest-season supply swings and bilateral softwood lumber trade disputes.

USDA APHIS requires a phytosanitary certificate issued by the exporting country's national plant protection organization. Depending on origin and species, additional treatments such as heat treatment or methyl bromide fumigation may be mandated to mitigate bark-beetle and wood-borer risks.
Roughly squared wood has been given only a preliminary axe or chainsaw shaping to remove major irregularities; it has not been sawn to uniform dimensions or processed through a mill. Once wood is sawn or chipped lengthwise to a thickness over 6 mm with planed or sanded faces, it moves into a different SITC heading covering sawn coniferous lumber.
