Import Tips
• Verify the material is purely vegetable plaiting like seagrass; synthetic blends shift to Chapter 39 or 54
• Provide certificates of origin for preferential duty treatment under trade agreements like USMCA
• Label as 'natural fiber floor covering' to avoid misclassification as finished furniture mats under Chapter 94
