Import Tips
• Test for thickness and tempering specs, as sole leather must meet industry standards for sole use to avoid upper leather confusion
• Include lab reports on fat-liquoring and finishing to distinguish from crust under chapter notes
• Declare animal origin precisely, as buffalo is bovine but may require specific veterinary certificates
