Import Tips
• Verify upper material is textile-dominant via surface area measurement per Chapter Note 4(a); document with photos or lab tests
• Confirm valuation under $3/pair using commercial invoice; common pitfall is misclassifying higher-value pairs
• Label country of origin clearly, as low-value imports often face scrutiny for transshipment
