Import Tips
• Label fiber content accurately as vegetable (e.g
• sisal) and measure external surface area of upper per chapter note 4(a)
• Conduct sole wear tests to prove textile durability, avoiding reclassification under U.S. note 5
• Avoid bundling with accessories that could alter classification; declare as individual pairs
