Import Tips
• Provide veterinary certificates confirming hair removal and tanning process to meet chapter exclusions for hairy hides
• Label shipments clearly as 'crust' to distinguish from wet-blue or finished leathers during customs inspection
• Avoid common pitfall of splitting declaration; unsplit or split crust both qualify but declare status accurately
