Import Tips
• Verify pickling process documentation to confirm no tanning has occurred, as tanned skins shift to 4104-4106
• Obtain certificates of origin specifying sheep/lamb source to comply with exclusions in chapter note 1(c)
• Check for wool removal proof; residual wool may require reclassification under 4102.31
