Import Tips

Verify sole material composition via lab testing to confirm <50% rubber/plastics and ≥10% as required; documentation must include weight breakdowns

Provide value declarations under $2.50/pair with commercial invoices; undervaluation leads to CBP penalties

Label clearly as 'men's' footwear and ensure textile upper has greatest external surface area per Chapter Note 4(a)
