If made from plastic strips or synthetic plaiting materials
Plaiting materials from Chapter 39 plastics change the classification from vegetable materials (4602.11-19) to other materials (4602.90).
If designed primarily as office furniture with added features like lining or handles
Functional household or office furniture of bamboo or similar excludes plaiting material articles per Chapter 46 exclusions.
If imported as plaits or sheets bound in parallel strands rather than shaped articles
Pre-made plaits or sheets from heading 4601 are classified there, while shaped wickerwork from those falls under 4602.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the plaiting material is solely vegetable (e.g
• willow) and woven directly to shape to avoid reclassification to plastics under 4602.90
• Provide origin certificates confirming natural vegetable fibers, as synthetic blends shift to different subheadings
• Label as 'wickerwork' not furniture to prevent misclassification under Chapter 94 HTS
