Import Tips

• Verify origin certificates to confirm equine or bovine source, as misclassification to Chapter 41 hides could trigger higher duties

• Provide lab analysis if needed to distinguish from sorted horsehair (0501), avoiding reclassification during customs exam

• Label clearly as 'waste unfit for human consumption' to comply with Chapter 1 exclusions and prevent food safety scrutiny
