Import Tips

• Verify total value per gross does not exceed 80¢ with detailed invoices; undervaluation leads to CBP penalties

• Confirm 100% bamboo construction via material certificates to avoid reclassification to general wooden articles

• Include HTS-specific markings on packaging to prevent mixing with higher-valued clothespins during customs exam
