Import Tips
• Verify leather origin and composition via lab testing to confirm it's not synthetic, avoiding reclassification to plastics headings
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'leather belt for apparel use' to distinguish from industrial straps
• Watch for undervaluation pitfalls; belts with precious metal buckles may shift to Chapter 71 if they dominate essential character
