Import Tips

• Ensure the twine is made solely of kenaf fibre and not blended with other materials, as blends may affect classification

• Declare the fibre content accurately on customs documents to avoid delays

• Verify the goods are not 'made up' within the meaning of Section XI Note 7, as that would exclude them from Chapter 56
