Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify unit surface area measurement (<2.6 m²) with precise documentation to avoid reclassification to larger hides
• Obtain tannery certificates confirming 'crust' status (retanned/colored/fat-liquored but dried, not finished)
• Ensure no further preparation like glazing or embossing, as that shifts to heading 4107
