Import Tips & Compliance

Test for chemical finishes to prove 'further prepared' status; common pitfall is insufficient processing documentation

Declare thickness and splits accurately; unsplit full grains must be verified physically or via photos

Check for REACH compliance if importing to EU first, as fancy dyes may contain restricted azo compounds
