Import Tips & Compliance

Verify the basket is woven directly from willow strips, not assembled from bound plaits of 4601, to avoid reclassification

Include certificates of vegetable material origin and photos showing plaiting process for customs inspection

Label clearly as 'wickerwork of willow' to meet Chapter 46 material disclosure requirements; avoid metal reinforcements that could shift to Chapter 73
