Import Tips
• Provide certificates of origin and fiber analysis proving jute (vegetable fiber) dominates upper surface per Chapter Note 4(a)
• Document sole construction showing textile as primary ground-contact material, not disregarded under U.S
• Note 5 for lack of durability
• Label clearly as men's footwear to match subheading; mixed sizing can lead to reclassification audits
