Import Tips & Compliance

Label fiber content accurately as vegetable (e.g

sisal) and measure external surface area for upper classification per note 4(a)

Provide lab tests confirming textile sole lacks 'durability and strength' for normal use to apply US note 5 exclusion

Ensure invoices clearly state value ≤$3/pair and adhesive-only construction to avoid reclassification
