Import Tips

Require metallization process details to confirm it's on leather, not synthetic (Chapter 39 or 56)

Test for 'crust' status; retanned but dried crust without full patent finish goes to 4104-4106

Label clearly as 'patent metallized leather' to prevent confusion with Chapter 71 imitation jewelry materials
