Import Tips
• Measure upper surface area precisely; reinforcements like edging don't count per Chapter Note 4(a)
• Use commercial invoices specifying 'house slippers, not for outdoor/sports use' to prevent scrutiny
• Check for prohibited cleats or spikes that could reclassify as sports footwear under subheading note
