Import Tips
• Verify leather origin and tanning process documentation to comply with CITES if applicable for exotic leathers
• Include detailed CAD drawings or patterns showing cut-to-shape dimensions to prove classification as a seat part
• Avoid common pitfalls like declaring as finished upholstery; ensure entry specifies 'cut to shape' for motor vehicle seats
