Import Tips
• Conduct surface area measurements for uppers and soles per chapter notes 4(a) and 4(b) to substantiate classification
• Avoid marketing as waterproof or sports footwear to prevent scrutiny under sports or protective subheading notes
• Use commercial invoices specifying exact value and material breakdowns to prevent undervaluation disputes
