Import Tips
• Verify that uppers and soles are both rubber/plastics with no stitching/riveting; provide mold marks or manufacturing specs to customs
• Include safety certification docs like ASTM for steel toes to avoid reclassification as casual footwear
• Label clearly as 'work footwear' and ensure waterproofing test reports to confirm eligibility
