Import Tips

• Verify the hide is truly in wet-blue state (chrome-tanned, not dried or finished) with lab certification to avoid misclassification as crust leather

• Include detailed documentation on animal origin, weight, and surface area measurements to confirm 'other' subcategory exclusion

• Ensure proper moisture content testing as drying could shift to 4104.19 headings; common pitfall is inadequate preservation during shipping
