Import Tips
• Label clearly as pigskin (from heading 4107) and retain supplier certificates for leather origin verification
• Measure sole contact area excluding reinforcements to confirm rubber/plastics per Chapter Note 4(b)
• For bulk imports, segregate by gender to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is mixing men's/women's sizes
