Import Tips
• Provide certification that rubber content meets heading 5906 criteria (e.g
• >15% rubber by weight)
• Label clearly as 'girls'' based on size and right-over-left closure to prevent unisex reclassification
• Avoid common pitfall of missing fabric coating invoices, leading to shifts to 6115.20
