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
