Import Tips
• Confirm equine origin via slaughterhouse docs, as equine leather must be distinguished from bovine for accurate heading
• Test for non-reversible tanning processes per chapter note (a) to avoid reclassification to wet-blue or crust
• Label clearly as 'upper leather' with thickness specs (<2.6mm typical) to prevent confusion with sole leather
