Import Tips

• Verify outer sole material composition via lab testing to confirm <10% rubber/plastics by weight, as per Chapter Note 4(b)

• Provide detailed invoices specifying upper (textile) and sole materials to avoid misclassification into higher-duty subheadings

• Ensure no foxing band of rubber/plastics overlaps the upper, a common pitfall leading to 6404.19.20 exclusion
