Import Tips

Obtain CITES permits if applicable, as raccoon fur may require documentation for endangered species compliance despite common status

Ensure dyeing process is documented to confirm classification as 'dyed' rather than natural, avoiding reclassification to undyed subheadings

Verify skins are whole and unassembled; adding lining or sewing into panels shifts to 4303, increasing duties
