Kenaf Bast Fiber from China
Kenaf bast fiber is derived from the kenaf plant (Hibiscus cannabinus) and is a jute-like textile bast fiber used in cordage and eco-friendly textiles. This product is raw or decorticated and not spun, falling under the tariff item as 'other' bast fiber, as kenaf is not flax, true hemp, or ramie.

• Provide botanical identification (Hibiscus cannabinus) to avoid confusion with true hemp
• Check if the fiber is treated with any chemicals, as that may affect classification
