Import Tips
• Verify skins are from non-excluded sheep/lamb breeds per chapter note 1(c); obtain veterinary certificates confirming fresh or simply preserved state
• Ensure no tanning or parchment-dressing has occurred; common pitfall is misclassifying lightly processed skins leading to audits
• Declare wool content accurately; provide origin certificates to qualify for preferential tariffs if from FTA countries
