Import Tips

• Ensure phytosanitary certificates to prove cleaning eliminates pests, common issue for reed imports

• Label bundles clearly as 'plaiting reeds' to distinguish from ornamental or structural uses

• Watch for over-processing; if rounded or polished excessively, it may edge toward exclusion notes
