Import restricted since 1999.

Section I.A.1.c of Designated List in force since 2008.

Three of the four doorways of a temple sanctuary are frequently ``false doors''; that is, though they are sculpted to look like doors, they do not open. They bear graphic and floral motifs, sometimes integrating human and animal figures. These doors can reach up to more than two meters in height and more than one meter in width. They can be monolithic or composed of separate blocks fitted together.

For import restrictions in force from 1999, see History of Import Restrictions below.
