Last updated: July 2026 dataBamboo plaits, strips, and bound or woven sheet products classified here are intermediate and semi-finished materials used in basket-making, hat-weaving, furniture construction, and decorative crafts. China is the dominant supplier, with Taiwan and Vietnam as secondary sources — a supply concentration that exposes importers to Section 301 tariff risk on Chinese-origin goods. The US schedule distinguishes strips or plaits not further worked (4601920500) from bamboo plaits and similar products bound or woven into sheets (4601922000), making the degree of assembly and the final form the controlling classification factors. These materials are often further processed domestically or re-exported as components, so correct classification at the intermediate stage is important for downstream duty drawback eligibility.

Bamboo strips or plaits that are not yet assembled into sheets are classified under 4601920500, while bamboo plaits and similar products that have been bound or woven into sheet form are classified under 4601922000. The physical state at the time of importation — loose strips versus assembled sheet — is the determining factor. Importers should document the product's form with photographs and supplier specifications to support the classification.
Yes, bamboo plaiting materials of Chinese origin are potentially subject to Section 301 tariffs. Mitigation strategies include sourcing from Vietnam or Taiwan, which are significant alternative suppliers under this heading, or pursuing a first-sale valuation approach to reduce the dutiable value. Importers should also review whether any Section 301 exclusions apply to their specific product and consult a licensed customs broker to evaluate the full landed-cost impact.
