Import Tips

• Use GSP or USMCA certificates if sourcing from qualifying countries to reduce duties on leather goods

• Document 'ice hockey specific' features like blade cuffs to prevent classification as general mitts

• Inspect for metal reinforcements; minor fittings stay in 4203 but essential character shifts to Chapter 73
