The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) will not issue phytosanitary certificates for wood packaging…when wood packaging is not the commodity. The reason is that there are already certification procedures in place which require application of the IPPC mark to show compliance to ISPM 15.
