Import Tips
• Document salt content (>30-40% typical for wet-salting) to distinguish from pickled hides under 4101.50
• Use refrigerated containers for long shipments to maintain 'fresh' status and prevent bacterial growth issues at customs
• Declare exact breed and origin; Nelore hides may face specific veterinary import requirements from USDA
