Dried Hog Pelts from Japan
Dried hog pelts are dehaired swine hides that have been air-dried for preservation after liming, without tanning or splitting. The drying process is a preservation method, not a tanning process. They are used as raw material for leather production.

Import Tips
• Ensure the pelts are not tanned or pre-tanned, as reversible tanning would change the classification
• Document the drying and liming processes for CBSA
• Keep the pelts free of hair or wool to avoid Chapter 43 classification
