Import Tips
• Document carbonization process doesn't alter unidirectional fiber structure; CBP may request manufacturing flowcharts
• Measure thickness ratios between wear layer and substrate layers to confirm multilayer classification requirements
• Include country-of-origin affidavits tracing bamboo source; illegal logging concerns trigger enhanced scrutiny
