Wood packaging goods for import and export – GOV.UK
www.gov.uk › … › Exporting and doing business abroad
————

Solid wood packaging must meet the ISPM15 international standards if you import it from outside the EU . If you import from the EU (except Portugal), you can specify less strict standards. Packaging can either be bark-free, or have a plant passport if it’s made out of conifer wood.

Wood packaging goods for import and export

The Brexit transition period has ended and new rules on wood packaging material for import and export now apply. This page is currently out of date.

You, or your packing service or freight forwarder, must make sure any solid wood packaging you use meets the requirements.

Solid wood packaging includes:

  • packing cases
  • boxes and crates
  • drums and similar packing
  • pallets, box pallets and pallet collars
  • dunnage (loose wood used to protect goods and their packaging)

These rules do not apply to processed woods like plywood, raw wood less than 6mm thick, or cardboard or other packaging materials.

What you need to do depends on whether you’re importing or exporting. If you do not follow the rules your packaging could be rejected or destroyed.

  • Export solid wood packaging
  • Reusing and returning solid wood packaging
