Import Tips

• Provide a declaration or contract from the buyer specifying use in rubber substitute manufacturing to qualify for this HTS; failure may reclassify to general 1514.99

• Include certificate of analysis confirming it's rapeseed/colza oil not chemically modified, with low erucic acid content if applicable

• Avoid common pitfalls like missing end-use affidavits, which trigger audits and higher duties under 1514.99.90
