Import Tips
• Verify surface area ≤2.6 m² and unsplit full grain status via measurement certificates to avoid reclassification
• Provide tanning process documentation proving further preparation beyond crusting, as reversible tanning falls under 4101-4103
• Ensure CITES compliance if from endangered bovine species; label as 'not fancy' to match subheading
