Import Tips

Verify DOT marking and production date code to confirm 'new' status; used tires may shift to HTS 4012

Provide manufacturer specs proving off-highway design (e.g

tread pattern, load index) to avoid reclassification to on-highway codes

Include end-use declaration for construction/mining to support 'other off-the-highway' categorization and prevent agricultural misclassification
