What is a fumigation certificate?
Also known as pest-control certification, this document confirms that any wooden packing materials used in shipping, such as pallets, have been fumigated.
The certificate contains details of the fumigants used, the reason for treatment, temperature range, etc.
When do you need a fumigation certificate?
If you’re using raw wooden materials such as wooden pallets or wooden packing boxes to protect your goods during transportation, you'll require a fumigation certificate.

Proud Co-Founder and CEO of Bookairfreight. Shortly after starting to work in the world of logistics, I was astonished at how difficult and time consuming it was for businesses to get their hands on a simple air freight quote. I saw this as an opportunity to really make a difference in people’s lives, and felt like I had to do something. It was the spark that lit the fire of Bookairfreight’s creation.
