Import Tips
• Verify tanning process documentation to confirm reversible pre-tanning aligns with chapter notes excluding fully processed crust
• Provide certificates of origin specifying sheepskin source, as chamois excludes certain goat breeds like Yemen or Tibetan
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as Chapter 43 if any wool remains on the skin
