Import Tips
• Obtain tanning process documentation to prove horsehide authenticity, as misidentified hides can lead to duty disputes
• Ensure no fur linings or attachments, which would exclude from Chapter 42 per notes
• Declare as 'driving gloves' not 'racing gloves' to avoid potential Chapter 95 toy/sports shift
