Import Tips

• Verify leather origin documentation (headings 4107/4112-4114) as uppers must predominate by surface area per Chapter Note 4(a)

• Provide lab tests confirming outer sole is genuine leather (greatest ground contact area, Note 4(b)); avoid misclassification as rubber/plastics

• Label clearly as 'women's' footwear; common pitfall is gender misclassification leading to audits
