Import Tips

• Verify the valuation per pair excludes retail packaging to ensure it falls within the $6.50-$12 range; provide commercial invoices with detailed breakdowns

• Confirm the upper material by surface area (per Chapter Note 4) is predominantly rubber/plastics visible to the naked eye, with lab tests if contested

• Avoid misclassification as non-sports by documenting athletic design features; common pitfall is claiming lower duties for casual sneakers
