Import Tips

• Verify the tire is genuinely retreaded (not used without retreading) via DOT markings and manufacturer certification to avoid misclassification as scrap under 4004

• Provide detailed documentation on vehicle compatibility (e.g

• passenger car specs) and radial construction to confirm HTS 4012.11.40.00 applicability

• Check for US retread tire regulations under FMVSS; non-compliant tires may face import restrictions or additional testing requirements
