Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the leather is full grain unsplit bovine/equine via supplier certification to avoid misclassification as split or other types
• Include detailed tanning process documentation to confirm it exceeds reversible pre-tanning, distinguishing from headings 4101-4103
• Check for hair removal and parchment-dressing if applicable; common pitfall is residual hair leading to chapter 43 rejection
