Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify upper material surface area exceeds other materials (e.g
• leather <50%) using Chapter Note 4(a); provide lab tests if disputed
• Document exact per-pair value with invoices; common pitfall is misvaluing sets or promotional bundles exceeding $6.50 threshold
• Ensure no spikes/cleats to avoid sports footwear reclassification; label as 'training shoes' for customs clarity
