Import Tips
• Document osier sourcing to meet Lacey Act requirements for plant materials; avoid generic 'wicker' declarations
• Test for lead content in finishes; common issue is reclassification if metal legs exceed minor component
• Ship fully assembled when possible to affirm furniture status over parts under note 3(b)
