Import Tips
• Provide detailed processing records showing post-crusting steps like dyeing or finishing to justify 4107 over 4104
• Check for reversible tanning processes which revert to 4101-4103; insist on irreversible treatment proof
• Avoid bulk packaging mislabeled as crust; splits must be declared separately
