Import Tips
• Include lab certification of seamless construction and non-reinforced status to prevent shifts to other subheadings
• Document end-use as non-pressure or low-pressure to stay in 'other'; high-pressure claims trigger different rates
• Avoid bundling with metal fittings, as free (C) duty applies only to hoses with attached fittings in heading 3917
