Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm vegetable fibers exceed other materials and total rubber/plastics under 10% by weight per Chapter Note 4

• Provide detailed upper material breakdown in entry docs; common pitfall is misclassifying synthetic reinforcements as dominant

• Ensure no foxing band overlaps upper to avoid 6404.19.20; photograph soles for CBP review
