Import Tips

• Verify outer sole composition via lab testing to confirm textile coverage doesn't qualify under US note 5, avoiding misclassification to 6404.19.70

• Include detailed value documentation and country-of-origin certificates, as low-value items often trigger undervaluation audits

• Ensure labeling specifies 'men's' sizing and fiber content per FTC rules to prevent reclassification as unisex
