Import Tips
• Conduct material composition tests to confirm textile dominates the upper's external surface area as per Chapter Note 4(a)
• Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring no spikes or cleats that could misclassify as sports footwear under subheading note
• Provide invoices clearly stating 'house slippers' and retail value per pair to support the specific subheading
