Import Tips
• Document jute/rope sole composition separately as it doesn't affect upper classification under Chapter Notes
• Provide surface area measurements proving textile > leather/VM in uppers to prevent disputes
• Label clearly as 'women's' based on fit/design; unisex items may require end-use evidence
