Import Tips
• Include origin certificates specifying equine source, as equine leather shares this code with bovines but may face different quotas
• Label clearly as 'lining leather' with end-use declarations to distinguish from upper or sole leather during customs inspection
• Test for reversible tanning processes; if present, it reverts to 4101-4103 headings per chapter notes
