Import Tips

• Provide detailed photos and material specs during customs entry to distinguish from finished wall coverings in 4814

• Check for CITES compliance if bamboo species are protected, though most commercial bamboo is exempt

• Avoid overstating durability; describe as 'decorative matting' to prevent reclassification as Chapter 94 articles
