Import Tips
• Provide engineering specs confirming use in machinery, not hand tools, to justify belting classification
• Use third-party testing for textile fiber ratios to preempt customs queries on man-made predominance
• Avoid bulk packaging that mimics profiles; ship as finished belts to prevent reclassification
