Mexico: Change to Certificates Required to Export Lumber to Mexico

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

On December 16, 2014, Mexico notified in the Diario Oficial (Mexico’s Federal Register) a simplification of the import process for lumber. Beginning January 16, 2015, imports of lumber from the United States will no longer need a phytosanitary certificate from the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) to enter Mexico. Instead, a certificate from an APHIS-approved company detailing the treatment applied will be sufficient. This change does not apply to green or wet wood.
