Import Tips

• Submit medical documentation from podiatrist detailing the diabetic condition and specific custom measurements used in construction

• Ensure invoice specifies 'single unit, made to measure for either foot' to meet statutory presentation requirements

• Avoid common pitfall of importing matching pairs; must be demonstrably single units for duty-free medical classification
