Import Tips
• Verify exact value per gross sq with supplier invoices; slight miscalculations can shift to adjacent value bands like 4421.91.80.20 or 4421.91.80.40
• Confirm 100% bamboo construction via material certificates, as any non-bamboo wood shifts to 4421.91.70
• Include HTS-specific statistical annotations on entry docs to avoid CBP reclassification during exam
