Import Tips

• Verify the leather is whole bovine, unit surface ≤28 sq ft, and in wet state (wet-blue) via lab testing for chrome tanning content

• Obtain supplier certification confirming 'upper leather' designation and no further preparation beyond crust

• Avoid misdeclaration as dry finished leather, which shifts to 4107; include wet weight documentation
