Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify leather origin per Chapter Note 3 (headings 4107, 4112-4114) with tanning certificates to avoid misclassification as synthetic
• Document welt construction photos; common pitfall is classifying as cemented if stitching not evident
• Label fiber content accurately; ensure invoices specify 'welt' to match HTS description
