Import Tips
• Verify feathers are unworked or minimally processed to avoid reclassification under heading 0505 for raw bird parts
• Include CITES documentation if using feathers from protected species like ostrich to ensure compliance with wildlife regulations
• Label products clearly as 'feather articles' and avoid marketing as toys to prevent Chapter 95 misclassification
