Import Tips
• Label clearly as 'quarter upper parts for footwear' and provide surface area calculations to comply with note 4(a) material determination
• Check for any attached outer sole pieces, a frequent issue leading to reclassification under 6404 or 6405
• For bulk imports, ensure country-of-origin marking on packaging to meet CBP requirements for parts
