Import Tips

• Certify pigskin via supplier invoices tracing to approved leather headings; customs may require surface area measurements

• Confirm soft spikes meet 'provision for attachment' in sports note; photograph soles for documentation

• Avoid bulk packaging pitfalls—ship as pairs for retail to prevent parts classification under 6406
