Import Tips
• Verify leather content exceeds 50% by weight and obtain a lab test report to confirm classification as leather rather than textile or plastic dominant
• Include sports-specific design documentation, such as grip patterns for ski poles, to justify 'specially designed for sports' under heading 4203
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as general work gloves, which shifts to 4203.29; ensure no fur linings to prevent reclassification to 4303
