Import Tips & Compliance

• Test outer sole for rubber composition (greatest ground contact per note 4(b)); textile overlays ignored if lacking durability

• Provide fiber content labels even for leather; US note requires accurate material disclosure

• Declare value per pair accurately; undervaluation common in dress shoe imports
