Import Tips
• Provide fiber content labels confirming vegetable fibers dominate upper surface area, excluding reinforcements
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring sole as rubber if textile layer is primary per note 4(b)
• Batch import documentation should specify exact pair values to stay within $3-$6.50 bracket
