Import Tips

• Verify upper is predominantly vegetable fibers (e.g

• jute, sisal) by surface area per Chapter Note 4(a); document fiber origin

• Confirm sole textile area exceeds rubber/plastics contact per U.S

• Note 5 exclusion; provide lab tests if challenged

• Avoid foxing or overlapping soles at sides to stay in this subheading; common pitfall is misclassifying as 6404.19.40
