Women's Cork Platform Jelly Sandals from Canada

These transparent jelly sandals for women feature a raised cork base or platform for height and comfort, with uppers made entirely of PVC plastic, exceeding 90% rubber/plastics external surface area. The flexible plastic upper lacks foxing or foxing-like bands, and they are not protective overfootwear. Classified under 6402.99.25.60 due to the women's sizing, cork platform construction, and predominant plastic upper per Chapter Note 4(a).

Import Tips

• Verify upper material exceeds 90% rubber/plastics via external surface area measurement, excluding reinforcements as per Chapter Note 4(a)

• Document cork base composition and women's sizing (typically US 5-10) to avoid misclassification as men's or universal footwear

• Ensure no foxing band overlaps upper; common pitfall leading to reclassification under 6402.99.31
