Import Tips & Compliance

Verify bamboo origin with supplier certificates as HTS distinguishes bamboo from other woods; misclassification risks penalties

Ensure pins meet 'plain' definition—no grooves, coatings, or modifications—to avoid reclassification to other subheadings

Provide detailed dimensions and photos in entry docs; common pitfall is confusing with fluted dowels under different codes
