Import Tips
• Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) documenting resistance to specific chemicals to substantiate protective classification
• Ensure documentation specifies 'for women' based on sizing and declare as work footwear to avoid general footwear duties
• Check for any textile reinforcements; if minimal, they don't affect rubber/plastics dominance per Chapter Note 4(a)
