Import Tips
• Document salt content and preservation date to prove it's not tanned; test for reversible processes
• Check country of origin for disease restrictions on bovine hides; obtain veterinary certificates
• Store in cool, ventilated conditions to prevent spoilage during transit, avoiding reclassification
