Import Tips
• Document upper material as >50% external textile surface (per Chapter note 4(a)) and sole textile contact with photos or diagrams
• Label clearly as women's and sports use; pitfall is unisex sizing leading to men's classification under different subheadings
• Retain manufacturing records proving value range to prevent undervaluation disputes at customs
