Import Tips
• Verify tanning process documentation to confirm reversible pre-tanning not applied, distinguishing from headings 4101-4103
• Provide CITES certification if swine skins originate from protected sources; declare exact moisture content as 'dry state'
• Avoid misclassification as finished leather (4107) by ensuring no surface coating or further preparation
