Nylon Shoelace Tassel Ends
Pre-attached nylon tassel tips on cord laces, sold separately from footwear as decorative accessories. These made-up cords and tassels fall under tariff item 6307.90.99 as other made-up articles of other textile materials. They are not classified under Chapter 64 footwear, as they are separate accessories, and the Section XI notes exclude footwear parts only when forming part of the footwear itself.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm the tassel ends are not attached to complete shoelaces, as that could shift classification to footwear accessories of Chapter 64
• Provide a clear product description indicating they are sold as separate decorative items
• If the nylon content is blended with other fibres, ensure the predominant material is stated for accurate classification
