Untreated wood may harbor insects and eggs, and the risk of introducing pests is high, which will break the ecological balance of the importing country, lead to biological invasion, and may cause serious harm to agriculture and forest resources. The USDA has issued guidelines to reduce the risk of incoming pests from wood packaging. Because wood packaging is often reused, the true source is difficult to determine, so its processing status is difficult to determine.

Therefore, the USDA adopted the International Standard for Wood Packaging adopted by the Interim Plant Committee of the International Plant Protection Convention on March 15, 2002. By adopting the International Standard, the U.S. Government has coordinated trade requirements with other countries that have adopted ISPM15 or are preparing to adopt the International Standard. In order to regulate the entry of wood packaging in North America, the International Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 standard will be implemented in the United States, Mexico and Canada on September 16, 2005. Entry wood packaging will be quarantined in accordance with U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency operating guidelines and procedures. In order to avoid the delay or denial of entry of goods in U.S. ports due to violation of regulations, importers should confirm that all wood packaging has been processed and marked in accordance with ISPM15 and APHIS regulations.
