Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify tanning process documentation to confirm it's not reversible, distinguishing from headings 4101-4103
• Provide certificates of origin and chemical treatment records to prove 'further prepared after tanning or crusting' status
• Avoid misclassification as fancy leather by ensuring no ornamental finishes; common pitfall is undervaluing splits
