Import Tips
• Include lab certificates confirming chrome tanning content to prevent disputes over tanning completeness
• Check for splits; unsplit wet hides stay here, but heavily split ones may require separate declaration
• Avoid common pitfall of drying during shipping, which could shift classification to crust leather
