Import Tips
• Verify tire specifications including exact rim diameter, radial construction, and 'new pneumatic tire' status via DOT markings to confirm HTS 4011.10.10.60 compliance
• Provide detailed technical data sheets and load index/speed ratings in entry documentation; ensure no retreading or used tires which shift to heading 4012
• Watch for country-of-origin rules; many tire producers face AD/CVD duties—check USTR lists and obtain bonding if applicable
