Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm buffalo as bovine subclass with veterinary certificates; distinguish from equine to stay in 4107.12
• Document post-tanning processes like crusting to prove 'further prepared' status and avoid raw hide misclassification
• Check for reversible tanning; if present, it reverts to 4101-4103 per chapter notes
