Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'vegetable pretanned' with process details to avoid misclassification as tanned leather
• Include lab analysis confirming tannin source is vegetable and process is reversible per chapter note 2(a)
• Check for splits; unsplit full hides stay here, but split layers may require specific subheading review
