Import Tips
• Verify leather origin with tanning certificates to confirm 'leather' per Chapter 42 notes and avoid reclassification as plastic sheeting
• Declare exact value per unit; samples under $20 may shift to 4202.21.60.00—include commercial invoices showing retail pricing
• Label country of origin prominently; ensure no fur linings to prevent Chapter 43 exclusion
