Import Tips
• Include detailed tanning process logs to prove 'further prepared after crusting' status, avoiding fallback to crust headings
• Check for hair removal certification, as chapter notes exclude hair-on hides from Chapter 41 unless specified bovine types
• Bundle with footwear manufacturing invoices if imported for assembly to leverage potential duty drawbacks
