Import Tips

• Verify the plaiting materials are solely vegetable-based (e.g

• willow strips) per Chapter 46 notes to avoid reclassification to plastics or other chapters

• Provide detailed photos and material affidavits during customs entry to confirm direct shaping from plaiting materials, not assembled from pre-made sheets

• Label fiber content if lined with textiles; common pitfall is undervaluation of handcrafted labor leading to audits
