Import Tips
• Document slip-on nature and open toes/heels in commercial invoice to match subheading criteria
• Avoid common pitfall of unclear packaging—specify 'for indoor/house use only' to prevent outdoor footwear scrutiny
• Conduct surface area measurements for uppers per Chapter note 4(a) to substantiate rubber/plastics dominance
