Import Tips
• Verify leather originates from headings 4107 or 4112-4114 via supplier certificates to avoid reclassification
• Document that straps constitute the entire upper (greatest external surface area) per Chapter Note 4(a)
• Inspect soles for pure leather contact with ground; avoid composite materials that shift to 6403.99
