Import Tips

• Include detailed tanning process logs to prove 'further prepared after crusting' beyond chapter 4104 definitions

• Specify 'not fancy' in invoices; decorative finishes shift to other subheadings with different rates

• Check for hair-on traces, as chapter excludes those under chapter 43 unless specified
