Import Tips
• Include fuel compatibility test results (e.g
• for ethanol blends) in import documentation
• Specify metal reinforcement type (helix vs. braid) to distinguish from textile-reinforced lines
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'automotive part' which could trigger Chapter 87 scrutiny
