Import Tips & Compliance

• Source from certified sustainable palm to comply with CITES if endangered species involved

• Declare exact vegetable material (e.g

• coconut palm) to avoid reclassification during customs exam

• Package securely to prevent frond damage, as breakage could lead to claims of incomplete goods
