Import Tips & Compliance

Verify the composition meets the definition of 'composition leather' with leather fiber basis per Chapter 41 notes to avoid reclassification

Provide lab test reports confirming leather fiber content during customs entry to prevent disputes on material basis

Ensure sheets are in slab, sheet, or strip form, not further manufactured into finished articles, as that changes classification
