Import Tips
• Provide lab test reports confirming metal toe-cap impact resistance; CBP often audits safety claims
• Avoid classifying as 'protective active' under 6402.91.42 if not using coated textile for water protection
• Declare exact value per statutory pair, watching for undervaluation pitfalls in commercial invoices
