Import Tips
• Verify the leather is from whole bovine hides and processed as grain splits to confirm classification under 4107.12.70; provide tanning process documentation
• Ensure no fancy finishes or embossing, as those shift to other subheadings; include certificates of origin for duty preferences
• Label fiber content and chemical treatments accurately to pass customs inspection and avoid reclassification
