Import Tips
• Verify tanning process documentation to confirm it's beyond reversible pre-tanning, as per chapter notes for headings 4104-4106
• Ensure supplier certificates specify 'glove quality' to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is mislabeling as general upholstery leather
• Label hides clearly as 'whole' to distinguish from splits, preventing customs disputes on hierarchy
