Import Tips
• Verify tanning process documentation to confirm it's beyond reversible pre-tanning, as per chapter notes for headings 4104-4106
• Label clearly as 'fancy goat leather' with origin and processing details to meet fancy leather criteria and prevent reclassification
• Check for hair/wool removal certification; presence could shift to Chapter 43 exclusions
