Import Tips

• Verify the value per pair equivalent with invoice documentation to ensure it falls within the $6.50-$12 range; overvaluation can shift to higher subheadings

• Provide detailed material composition certificates confirming textile dominance per Chapter Note 4(a) to avoid reclassification as leather or rubber uppers

• Label as 'formed uppers for footwear' clearly, avoiding any sole attachment to prevent classification as complete footwear under headings 6401-6405
