Import Tips
• Verify the leather is from whole bovine hides and grain splits via supplier certification to avoid misclassification as full-grain
• Ensure documentation proves no hair on and post-tanning preparation
• Common pitfall: confusing with Chapter 42 finished articles—import as leather material only
