Import Tips

Verify the unit surface area does not exceed 28 square feet (2.6 m²) with precise measurements to avoid reclassification to larger hide codes

Obtain CITES certification if from endangered bovine species and ensure tannage process documentation proves 'further prepared after tanning or crusting'

Label with accurate species (bovine) and avoid 'fancy' finishes like embossing to stay in this subheading; common pitfall is mismeasuring surface area
