Import Tips & Compliance

• Document leather origin from headings 4107/4112-4114 per Chapter Note 3; include lab tests for authenticity

• Measure ankle coverage precisely; boots must fully cover ankle joint to avoid 6403.51 reclassification

• Check for reinforcements like ankle patches – ignore per Note 4(a) for upper material determination
