Import Tips
• Verify tanning process documentation to confirm it's irreversible and qualifies under Chapter 41, not reversible pre-tanning of 4101-4103
• Ensure certificate of origin for bovine source and no hair on; common pitfall is misclassifying split hides without proper thickness measurement
• Label fiber content and chemical treatments accurately to avoid CBP reclassification during entry
