Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide FMVSS certification and pressure test reports to comply with NHTSA import requirements for brake components
• Ensure invoices specify vulcanized rubber construction and metal-only reinforcement to avoid misclassification into textile headings
• Watch for bulk packaging; retail-packed hoses may face different valuation rules under informal entries
