Import Tips

• Verify authenticity with certificates of origin from South American sources like Guyana or Venezuela to avoid misclassification as synthetic rubber

• Ensure no vulcanizing agents or extenders added, as per Chapter Note 5(a), or it shifts to processed rubber headings

• Declare exact moisture content and form (bale vs. lump) in entry docs to prevent valuation disputes
