Import Tips
• Verify valuation per pair does not exceed $3 with detailed invoices to avoid reclassification to higher-value subheadings
• Ensure documentation specifies 'formed uppers of textile materials' excluding outer soles or stiffeners per Chapter Note 3
• Label fiber content accurately as textile uppers may require country-of-origin certificates for preferential tariffs
