Fuzzy Fleece House Slippers from Germany

Fuzzy fleece synthetic textile uppers provide warmth in these casual house slippers, paired with rubber soles featuring a non-durable textile tread covering the majority of the ground-contact surface. Priced over $3 but not exceeding $6.50 per pair, they are intended solely for home use. This fits HTS 6404.19.77.15 as non-vegetable textile uppers with qualifying sole per US Note 5.

Import Tips

• Label uppers clearly as synthetic (e.g

• polyester fleece) to confirm non-vegetable fiber status and avoid vegetable fiber subheadings

• Document commercial invoice values precisely within $3-$6.50 range; undervaluation risks penalties

• Ensure soles meet 'textile greatest surface but not durable' criteria with photos/specs to prevent misclassification as 6404.19.70
