Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If sorted by length like horsehair
If antler hair is separated and sorted (roots/tips not aligned), it may classify under prepared animal hair in 0502.
If marketed as a plant-based herbal substitute but actually animal-derived
Misclassification can occur if labeled as 'herbs,' but Chapter 5 notes exclude plants; true animal origin stays here.

Import Tips & Compliance
