Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify tanning process documentation to confirm it's further prepared after crusting, avoiding misclassification under 4104-4106
• Provide certificates of origin and hair removal proof, as chapter 41 excludes hairy hides; common pitfall is incomplete splitting records
• Label as 'upper leather' with thickness specs (<2.6mm typical) to differentiate from sole leather during customs inspection
