Import Tips

• Conduct material composition tests; pebbled finish must be confirmed as leather, not coated textile

• Provide detailed photos and specs in entry docs to distinguish from briefcases (4202.11) or totes

• Watch for precious metal fittings; if they dominate character, may shift to Chapter 71 per notes
