Import Tips
• Verify leather content exceeds 50% by weight and obtain tannery certificates to confirm 'leather' per Chapter 41 definitions
• Label products clearly with material composition to avoid misclassification as plastic sheeting bags under 3923
• Ensure no fur linings or toy-like features, as those shift to Chapters 43 or 95
