Import Tips
• Verify the leather originates from sheep or lamb without wool and is further prepared after tanning but not 'fancy' per chapter notes
• Provide tanning process documentation and CITES certificates if from protected species to ensure compliance
• Label garments accurately with leather content to avoid misclassification into apparel chapters
