Import Tips
• Include veterinary certificates confirming equine origin, as misdeclared bovine leather risks penalties
• Document finishing process (e.g
• fat-liquored but dried) to distinguish from crust under note (b)
• Avoid bundling with hardware; sets may classify as saddlery under 4201 if not solely leather
