Import Tips
• Label tires with speed rating (e.g
• V or W) and ECE/DOT markings to confirm motorcycle-specific classification
• Provide load index documentation; exceeding bicycle limits prevents misclassification
• Avoid common pitfalls like incorrect country-of-origin marking, which can lead to FDA or CBP holds
