The processing of wood and timber products has significantly contributed to the growth of industrial production in Serbia in the first nine months of 2021. Some of these products are for domestic needs, while others are exported. It is interesting to note that we have exported large quantities of unprocessed, but also processed wood to China. The Serbian timber industry is extremely export-oriented and has significant development potential. According to data from the Republic Bureau of Statistics, in the period from January to May 2021, the export of furniture and products made of wood, cork, straw and paper amounted to 546.8 million euro, which makes up 6.6% of total exports of the Republic of Serbia. Compared to the same period in the previous year, exports grew by 13.3%. In the same period, imports reached 464 million euros. The most impressive output from this industry is made up by exports of furniture, which amounted to a value of 230.8 million euro. The documents required for exporting wood differ from country to country, and they also depend on what level of processing the goods have undergone. In addition to the standard documents for trade, transport, insurance and customs, exporters should check the required additional requirements in the destination and transit countries, such as certificates, labeling on packaging, fumigation of packaging etc. Depending on the level of processing, the destination and transit country and the purpose of the given products, it might be necessary to perform additional checks, such as phytosanitary inspections. Therefore, it is best to inform yourself about these requirements early on in the planning phase. In addition, all semi-finished wood products, depending on their tariff number, must be accompanied by a statement confirming that they are not produced from protected species of flora and fauna. cargo-partner provides a range of transport options for the import and export of wood and timber products by sea, air, road and rail.
