Import Tips
• Verify the wooden base constitutes a significant platform structure per HTS notes; provide cross-sections or blueprints if challenged
• Ensure leather uppers meet Chapter 64 definitions (headings 4107, 4112-4114) with proper tanning certificates
• Label fiber content accurately and avoid misclassifying as non-platform if wood is merely decorative
