Import Tips
• Document end-use as transmission (not conveyor) with buyer affidavits if needed for Customs review
• Avoid bulk packaging that suggests raw material; ship as finished belts to prevent 4004 waste classification
• Check for Chapter 40 exclusions like electrical components that could shift to Section XVI
