Import Tips
• Label tires clearly as 'RETREADED' per FMVSS 117 to prevent reclassification as new tires during customs inspection
• Provide retread band specifications and DOT retread stamp details in entry documents for smooth clearance
• Avoid common pitfalls like insufficient proof of used casing origin, which can trigger anti-dumping scrutiny
