Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If featuring a foxing or foxing-like band applied or molded at the sole overlapping the upper
Foxing band shifts classification to heading 6401 for footwear with applied foxing regardless of material dominance.
If designed primarily as protective overshoes against water, oil, or weather with non-molded sewn construction above 3cm
Exceptions in the subheading exclude protective overshoes, directing them to Chapter 64 heading 6405 for other footwear.
If upper rubber/plastics ≤90% due to significant textile reinforcements or coatings
Chapter Note 4(a) bases upper material on greatest external surface area; textiles would move it to other 6402.99 subheadings.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify infant sizing per statistical note 2 (typically under 24 months or small foot length) with size labels and test reports to avoid reclassification
• Measure external surface area of upper precisely; document >90% rubber/plastics with photos and material specs to comply with Chapter Note 4(a)
• Avoid foxing-like bands overlapping the sole; common pitfall is misclassifying as 6401 if foxing present
