Import Tips
• Verify product labeling explicitly states 'disposable' or 'single-use' to support classification under 6405.90.20.00
• Include test reports confirming lack of durability for normal footwear use to prevent reclassification as reusable
• Ensure FDA compliance documentation for medical use products to avoid delays at import
