Import Tips
• Rabbit fur often exempt from CITES but confirm non-protected variants; include tannery certificates
• Test for fiber content to distinguish real vs artificial; declare accurately to prevent 4304 shift
• Package as individual accessories, not sets with coats, to maintain 4303.10 classification
