Import Tips
• Verify DOT code marking on sidewall for highway-legal pneumatic tires to meet US safety standards
• Provide detailed tire specifications including ply rating and load index in entry documentation
• Avoid misclassification as truck tires; confirm passenger car end-use to prevent duty adjustments
