Import Tips
• Label with precise model (e.g
• SPB1500) and dimensions; customs may require physical measurement to confirm 60-180 cm range
• Include material breakdown certificate showing vulcanized rubber as base with textile reinforcement to distinguish from all-rubber products
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'parts'—specify as endless transmission belting to prevent reclassification
