Import Tips
• Verify the leather originates from whole bovine hides and meets 'belting' specifications to avoid reclassification
• Provide tannery processing certificates and documentation confirming no hair on and post-tanning preparation
• Check for reversible tanning processes, as those may shift to headings 4101-4103
