Import Tips
• Obtain technical drawings showing adhesive bonding without stitching or molding to prove construction
• Avoid common error of misstating sole material; test for textile vs rubber dominance per chapter note 4(b)
• Ensure women's sizing documentation (e.g
• US 5-10) for subheading specificity
