Import Tips

• Verify the leather is from bovine or equine animals without hair on, and confirm full grain unsplit status via supplier certificates to match 4107.11.60 exactly

• Include detailed tanning process documentation and test reports for substance content to comply with U.S. customs leather classification rules

• Avoid misdeclaration as sole leather if primarily for uppers; measure thickness and test for upper vs. sole properties to prevent reclassification
