Import Tips

• Document that it's made-up from plaiting materials, not assembled from pre-made 4601 articles, to fit 'other' subheading

• Check for inner fabric liners; if predominant, it risks reclassification as textile articles

• Obtain phytosanitary certificates for rattan to comply with agricultural import rules
