Import Tips
• Retain supplier material specs and photos showing external surface areas for CBP verification
• Declare as 'other' footwear explicitly, avoiding terms like 'athletic' that trigger sports footwear review
• Monitor bulk shipments for average pair value; exceeding $3 triggers higher duty subheadings
