Import Tips
• Include sidewall markings and manufacturing specs in customs entry to prove radial ply and rim size fit for 4011.10.10.60
• Label tires properly for retail sale; bulk shipments without packaging may risk reclassification as parts under 4013
• Conduct fiber content checks if textile plies are prominent—ensure no shift to Section XI textiles per Chapter 40 exclusions
