Last updated: July 2026 dataBamboo classified here is specifically destined for plaiting, basketry, and wickerwork applications — distinguishing it from structural bamboo, bamboo flooring, or bamboo pulp, which classify elsewhere in the schedule. China is overwhelmingly the dominant supplier, reflecting both the geographic concentration of suitable bamboo species and established processing infrastructure for split and prepared plaiting material. Imports from China are subject to Section 301 tariffs, a factor that has prompted some buyers to evaluate alternative sources such as Vietnam and Colombia. USDA APHIS may require phytosanitary documentation for raw bamboo material to prevent the introduction of plant pests.

Raw or minimally processed bamboo may require a phytosanitary certificate issued by the national plant protection organization of the exporting country, confirming the material is free from regulated pests and diseases. USDA APHIS conducts border inspection; importers should confirm current requirements with APHIS or a licensed customs broker before shipment, as requirements can vary by country of origin and degree of processing.
The key classification criterion is the primary intended use at the time of importation. Bamboo in the form of raw culms, strips, or splits prepared for weaving or basketry typically qualifies under 1401100000. Bamboo that has been further processed into boards, panels, or structural profiles generally classifies in Chapter 44 (wood and articles of wood). The physical form and accompanying commercial documentation — including purchase orders and product specifications — are critical evidence in classification determinations.
