Import Tips

Verify leather content exceeds 50% of upper surface area per Chapter Note 4(a); provide tannery certificates if questioned

Document sole material as composition leather (ground leather scraps bonded); avoid misclassification as rubber/plastics soles

Label clearly as 'for adults' to distinguish from child sizes under 6403.51.60; common pitfall is size-based disputes
