Import Tips

• Verify the hide's weight (≤16 kg wet-salted) and surface area (≤2.6 m²) with precise measurements to confirm classification under 4101.20.30.00

• Obtain veterinary health certificates proving the hides are free from diseases like BSE, as required for bovine imports

• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as tanned; ensure no reversible pre-tanning processes were applied per chapter notes
