Although we did in fact resume shipping to the US last week - we have temporarily suspended this service as we finalize a detail that was leading to delays crossing through the border. We expect this issue to be sorted very quickly and will update the website immediately.
There are many rules surrounding the import of exotic wood and timber products into the USA, and a successful shipment requires strict adherence to permitting and certification requirements. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) enforces the declarations of conformance with the LACEY Act and an import permit specific to each entry.
At KJP the supply of exotic woods into the USA is an important part of our business and we are working hard to establish shipping protocols to be compliant with these USDA.
We will resume the export of those exotic species you have come to love just as soon as we can.
